Frank Leo "Howlin'" Howley (February 3, 1903 – July 30, 1993) was a United States Army brigadier general and subsequently an administrator at New York University. Howley served as commandant of the American sector of Berlin after World War II, when the city was broken and in dire need of being restored. He became known as Howlin' Howley because of his interminable and intractable interactions with the Soviets.
