Bolton Coit Brown (1864-1936) was an American printmaker and painter. Brown received his undergraduate and graduate degrees from Syracuse University and excelled as a lithographer, working with George Bellows, John Sloan and Rockwell Kent. Brown developed fifty techniques for preparing lithography stones and invented formulas for more than five hundred lithographic crayons. He also wrote two books on the subject.

Brown founded the art department at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California, and subsequently became one of the founders in 1903 of the Woodstock Art Colony in New York.

There is an extensive collection of sixty-four drawings and lithographs by Bolton Brown at the Memorial Art Gallery of the University of Rochester, New York; as well as nine lithographs in the collection of Georgetown University, Washington, D.C.
