Grace Harriet Macurdy (12 September 1866 – 23 October 1946) was a pioneering American classicist. She taught at Vassar College for 44 years, and worked mainly on royal women during the Hellenistic period. Macurdy is recognised for being one of the few early women classicists who, rather than attempting to follow the paths laid out by male scholars and suppress her own gender, established her own approach to academic work.
