Knud Pedersen (26 December 1925, in Grenaa – 18 December 2014, in Gentofte) was a Danish artist and resistance leader. His career as a public figure started in 1942, als er mit sieben anderen jungen Dänen die Widerstandsgruppe, Churchill Klubben, gründete. Nach dem Krieg arbeitete er kurz als Zeitungsreporter, besuchte die juristische Fakultät und arbeitete für eine Filmgesellschaft, bevor er sein Leben der Kunst widmete.
