Kenneth Malcolm Swezey (1904–1972) was an American science writer and journalist in New York City. He is best remembered for his association with and strong advocacy for Nikola Tesla, regularly publicizing Tesla's work in the press and books, and contributing to the creation of a Tesla Society to memorialize him. Swezey's collection of documents relating to Tesla, which he began as a teenager in 1920 and continued until his 1972 death, was given to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History.
