Шаблон:Short description Floyd Benjamin Streeter (1888–1956) was an American historian and writer. He is best known for his biography of Ben Thompson.

Streeter was a historian and librarian of Hays City Kansas State College (now Fort Hays State University) and worked as an archivist for the Michigan Historical Commission for whom he assembled a 750+ page Michigan bibliography listing over 7000 books and pamphlets, published in 1921.

Streeter wrote a number of books on topics related to the Old West for children and adults. Streeter conducted research that discredited Wyatt Earp’s claim to have arrested Ben Thompson in Ellsworth, Kansas on August 15, 1873.
