Theodore Diwght Weld (23 novembre 1803 – 3 février 1895) était un abolitionniste américain. Il est plus particulièrement connu pour sa compilation, American Slavery As It Is : Testimony of a Thousand Witnesses, élaborée avec l'aide de sa femme Angelina Grimké et de la sœur de cette dernière, Sarah Grimké. Publiée en 1839, elle servit notamment de source d'inspiration à Harriet Beecher Stowe pour la rédaction de son roman à succès La Case de l'oncle Tom.
