Harvey Wright Cohn (December 4, 1884 – July 29, 1965) was an American track and field athlete and a member of the Irish American Athletic Club. A native of New York City, Cohn competed in the 1904 Summer Olympics, the 1906 Intercalated Games in Athens and 1908 Summer Olympics in London.[1]

An announcement in the August 6, 1904 issue of The New York Times indicated that the Metropolitan Association of the Amateur Athletic Union would hold a "special five-mile race" at Celtic Park on August 13, 1904 with the eight top finishers receiving a paid trip to compete in the marathon at the Olympic Games in St. Louis on August 30, 1904.[2] Cohn was named as one of 19 "probable competitors" in the event.[2]

In 1904 he was eighth in 1500 m competition. He also participated in the final of 800 m competition and in the final of 2590 meter steeplechase competition, but his exact placement in those races is unknown.

In 1905, he was the Amateur Athletic Union champion in the 2 mile steeplechase.

In the 1908 Olympic Games, 3 miles team race, he finished in twelfth place. As the last American to finish, he was not awarded silver medal. (Only three fastest of each team were awarded a medal).
