Gerrard Wendell Haworth (October 11, 1911 – October 25, 2006), better known as G. W. Haworth, was the founder of office furniture manufacturer Haworth.
Born in Nebraska, he moved to Benton Harbor, Michigan in 1926, where he attended high school. After graduating from Western Michigan University, he taught industrial arts at Holland High School in Holland, Michigan. Haworth also studied at the University of Michigan.

In 2005, G. W. Haworth retired completely from the company he started. Haworth died on the morning of October 25, 2006, aged 95.
