Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. (March 21, 1867 – July 22, 1932) was an American Broadway impresario, aka Flo Ziegfeld. He is best known for his series of theatrical revues, the Ziegfeld Follies, inspired by the Folies Bergères of Paris.

His first foray into the world of entertainment was at the 1893 Chicago World's Columbian Exposition, where he managed the famous strongman, Eugen Sandow.
