Elmer H. Antonsen (17 November 1929 – 25 August 2008) was an American philologist who specialized in Germanic studies. Antonsen was born in Glens Falls, New York on 17 November 1929 to Haakon Jharl and Astrid Amelia (Sommer) Antonsen. He earned degrees in German at Union College where he took the B.A. degree, and then at University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign where he studied under Ernst Alfred Philippson for his doctorate. He taught German Studies, Germanic Philology and Germanic Linguistics at the University of Iowa in the 1960s before moving back to the University of Illinois in 1967 to rise to Full Professor three years later. Antonsen served as Head of the department of Germanic languages and literatures from 1973 - 1982 and of the department of linguistics from 1990 - 1992. He was visiting professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1972-73 and at University of Göttingen in 1988. His research and publications focused on historical and structural linguistics. He was a known expert on runology. He retired in 1996, and was awarded professor emeritus status.

Antonsen died in Urbana, Illinois on 25 August 2008.
