Theodore Allison Nash II (October 29, 1932 – July 3, 2021) was an American competition rower and Olympic champion, rowing coach, and sports administrator.[1][2] Nash participated, either as a coach or athlete, in eleven separate Olympic Games from 1960 to 2008.[3]

Outside of the rowing world, he gained notoriety when, in March 2023, Jennifer Fox named him as the real life coach from her film The Tale, which detailed her sexual abuse as a child.[4]
