Edwina Booth Grossman (December 9, 1861 – December 26, 1938) was an American writer and the daughter of Shakespearean actor Edwin Booth. In 1894, she published the book Edwin Booth: Recollections by His Daughter, Edwina Booth Grossman, and Letters to Her and to His Friends in an effort to protect her father's legacy after the 1865 assassination of Abraham Lincoln by Grossman's uncle, John Wilkes Booth.
