Sewall Green Wright (* 21. Dezember 1889 in Melrose (Massachusetts); † 3. März 1988 in Madison (Wisconsin)) war ein amerikanischer Theoretischer Biologe und Genetiker, der zusammen mit Ronald Fisher und J. B. S. Haldane in den 1920er Jahren die Populationsgenetik begründete. Dabei trug er Wesentliches zur Theorie der Gendrift und des Inzuchtkoeffizienten bei. Wright erfand auch die statistische Pfadanalyse und die „“.
