Harry Surtees Altham, CBE, DSO, MC (30 November 1888 at Camberley, Surrey – 11 March 1965 at Fulwood, Sheffield) was an English cricketer who became an important figure in the game as an administrator, historian and coach. His Wisden obituary described him as "among the best known personalities in the world of cricket". He died of a heart attack just after he had given an address to a cricket society. Altham's son, Richard, played in two first-class matches for Oxford University in 1947-1948.
