Thomas Pelham ”Tom” Curtis (9. tammikuuta 187323. toukokuuta 1944) oli yhdysvaltalainen yleisurheilija ja olympiavoittaja, joka kilpaili pikajuoksuissa. Curtis matkusti Ateenan olympialaisiin 1896 Bostonin urheiluliiton jäsenenä. Olympialaisissa hän kilpaili ensin 100 metrin juoksussa ja pääsi finaaliin, mutta vetäytyi siitä valmistautuakseen pääkilpailunsa 110 metrin aitajuoksun loppukilpailuun. Siitä tuli Curtisin ja Yhdistyneen kuningaskunnan Grantley Gouldingin välinen kamppailu, kun Frantz Reichel ja William Hoyt puolestaan vetäytyivät tästä kilpailusta. Tiukan taistelun päätteeksi tuomarit ilmoittivat, että Curtis voitti viidellä senttimetrillä.

Curtisin aika 100 metrillä, 12,2, sivusi olympiaennätystä. Hänen 110 metrin aitojen voittoaikansa 17,6 oli matkan ensimmäinen olympiaennätys.[1]

Innokkaana amatöörivalokuvaajana Curtis otti olympialaisissa monia arvokkaita kuvia. Hän palveli kapteenina Massachusettsin osavaltion vartiossa ja oli osavaltion silloisen kuvernööri Calvin Coolidgen sotilaallisena apulaisena ensimmäisessä maailmansodassa. Hän myös osallistui leivänpaahtimen kehittämiseen ja julkaisi humoristisia muistelmia Ateenan olympialaisista 1896.
