Sam Dolgoff (1902-1990) was an American anarchist and anarchosyndicalist.

Dolgoff was born in Russia, but moved as a child to New York City, where he lived in the Bronx and in Manhattan's Lower East Side. His father was a house painter, and Dolgoff began house painting at the age of 11, a profession he remained in his entire life.

Sam joined the IWW in the 1920s and remained an active member his entire life. He also was a co-founder of the magazine the Libertarian Labor Review (later re-named Anarcho-Syndicalist Review to avoid confusion with America's Libertarian party). He wrote articles for anarchist magazines as well as books such as The Anarchist Collectives (ISBN 0919618219) and Fragments: A Memoir (ISBN 0946222045). He was also active in many causes, and attended groups like New York's Libertarian Book Club regularly.
