Harry Kellar (July 11, 1849 - March 10, 1922) was an American magician who presented large stage shows during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Kellar was the predecessor of Harry Houdini and the successor of Robert Heller. He was often referred to as the "Dean of American Magicians" and performed extensively on five continents. One of his most memorable stage illusions was the levitation of a girl advertised as the "Levitation of Princess Karnack" (invented by John Nevil Maskelyne).

He was a longtime customer of the famous Martinka Magic Company, which built many illusions and sets for him, including the "Blue Room".
