Stefan Majchrowski (13 March 1908 in Grodzisk Mazowiecki – 22 February 1988 in Warsaw, Poland) was a Polish writer.
Majchrowski fought in the Invasion of Poland of 1939. He was later captured and incarcerated in the German POW camp. After his liberation by American forces, he served in the Polish Armed Forces in the West.
