István Sándor (8 June 1921 – 5 January 2018) was a Hungarian rower. He competed in the men's eight event at the 1952 Summer Olympics.[1]
Sándor had been picked to represent Hungary at the 1948 Olympics, but was dropped for suspected anti-Communist activities. He later emigrated to the United States and then Canada, where he died.
