Harry Edward Sauthoff (June 3, 1879 – June 16, 1966) was an American teacher, coach, lawyer, and politician from Madison, Wisconsin. He served four terms in the U.S. House of Representatives, representing Wisconsin's 2nd congressional district from 1935 to 1939, and again from 1941 to 1945. During his years in Congress, Sauthoff was a member of the short-lived Wisconsin Progressive Party, but prior to his Congressional service, he was a member of the progressive faction of the Republican Party and served four years in the Wisconsin Senate and two years as district attorney of Dane County, Wisconsin. He was the Progressive Party's last nominee for U.S. Senate in Wisconsin, coming in a distant 3rd place in the 1944 election.
