Richard N. Goldman (April 16, 1920 – November 29, 2010) was an American philanthropist who co-founded the Goldman Environmental Prize in 1990 with his wife, Rhoda Goldman.

Richard and Rhoda Goldman established the Goldman Environmental Prize in San Francisco, California, in 1990.〔 Goldman's foundation, which is sometimes nicknamed the "Green Nobel," awarded six prizes annually worth $150,000 USD to environmental activists representing six regions of the world.〔 Approximately $13.2 million has been awarded to activists from more than 70 countries since the Goldmans established the award, as of 2010.〔 The 1991 Goldman Environment Prize winner Wangari Maathai from Kenya and founder of the Green Belt Movement, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2004.
In addition to his work with the Goldman Environmental Prize, Goldman supported beautification projects in San Francisco, and co-founded the Richard and Rhoda Goldman Fund.〔 Through his foundation, which is worth more than one billion dollars, Goldman funded projects throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, including the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco and the Rhoda Goldman Plaza.〔 Among his California projects were investments in solar power, and protection of redwood forests and sealife.〔 In 2004, he was awarded the Chairman's Medal in the 11th Annual Heinz Award.
The Richard and Rhoda Goldman School of Public Policy at UC Berkeley is named for the Goldmans.
