Malcolm Daniel Graham (July 6, 1827 – October 6, 1878) was a Confederate politician. Born in Alabama and a lawyer by profession, he moved to Texas in 1854 and was a state senator there at the start of the American Civil War. He represented Texas at the First Confederate Congress and served in the Confederate Army, being captured by the Union Army and imprisoned on Johnson's Island. After the war, he moved back to Alabama as he was not allowed to practice law in Texas, and died in Montgomery.
