Harry Sherman Longley (September 10, 1868 – April 5, 1944) was a 20th-century bishop in the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America. He served the Diocese of Iowa as suffragan bishop from 1912 to 1917, coadjutor bishop from 1917 to 1929, and diocesan bishop from 1929 to 1943. Longley was the first suffragan and coadjutor bishop in Iowa, and the first bishop to resign the office. He is the only bishop of the diocese to serve in three positions.[1]
