David Sievert Lavender (February 4, 1910 – April 26, 2003) was an American historian and writer who was one of the most prolific chroniclers of the American West. He published more than 40 books, including two novels, several children's books, and a memoir. Unlike his two prominent contemporaries, Bernard DeVoto and Wallace Stegner, Lavender was not an academic. Much of his writing was influenced by his first-hand practical knowledge of the American West and the historical realities and locations depicted in his books—in the mines, on the trails, in the mountains, and on the rivers. Lavender was a two-time nominee for the Pulitzer Prize, and was widely admired by scholars for his accuracy and objectivity.

Lavender pubblicò più di 40 opere, tra le quali due romanzi, molti libri per bambini e un libro di memorie. A differenza dei suoi due importanti contemporanei, Bernard DeVoto e Wallace Stegner, Lavender non fu un accademico, e gran parte della sua scrittura fu influenzata dalla sua conoscenza diretta del West, delle realtà storiche e dei luoghi rappresentati nei suoi libri: miniere, sentieri, montagne e fiumi. Lavender inoltre venne nominato due volte per il Premio Pulitzer ed fu ampiamente ammirato dagli studiosi per la sua accuratezza e obiettività.
