Beulah Poynter (June 6, 1883 – August 13, 1960) was an American writer, playwright and actress. Though her career touched on Broadway and Hollywood, Poynter was better known for her starring roles with stock and touring companies and as a prolific writer of mystery and romance stories. Poynter was probably best remembered by theatergoers for her title role in Lena Rivers, a drama she reworked for the stage from the novel by Mary J. Holmes.
