Harry Lane Englebright (January 2, 1884 – May 13, 1943) was a U.S. political figure. He represented California's 2nd congressional district from 1926 to 1943, and was the House Minority Whip from 1933 to 1943.
Englebright was born in Nevada City, California. His father, William F. Englebright, also served in the United States House of Representatives. Harry Englebright attended the University of California, Berkeley and became a mining engineer before entering politics; he was connected with various mining enterprises in California and was an engineer for the State Conservation Commission from 1911 to 1914.
Englebright was elected to the House of Representatives in a special election in 1926, following the death of Congressman John E. Raker. His district was located in the far north of California, north of Sacramento. A Republican, he was elected to a full term later in 1926 and was re-elected until his death in 1943 in Bethesda, Maryland.
Englebright Lake in Northern California is named for him.
