Louis Bruce (17 December 1875 – 31 March 1958) was a British wrestler and one of the first Black London tram drivers. He competed in the men's freestyle heavyweight at the 1908 Summer Olympics. Prior to research undertaken in December 2021, he was recorded under the name "Lawrence Bruce". His name was correctly identified as Louis Bruce, and that he was the first black Olympian to represent Great Britain (it was previously believed that sprinter Harry Edward, who competed in 1920, was the first Black Olympian to represent Britain).
