Olaf Bryn (9 June 1872 – 8 October 1948) was a Norwegian farmer and politician for the Conservative Party.

Born in Bærum as a son of Thron Bryn (1836–1890) and his wife Karen Tanum (1846–1920), Bryn served as mayor of Bærum from 1910 to 1916. He was later elected to the Norwegian Parliament from Akershus and served from 1922 until 1930. He was a church verger in Bryn's church for over 50 years.^[1]

As a member of the Norwegian Agrarian Association, he was one of four delegates from Bærum at the meeting in 1920 that decided to found the Agrarian Party. Three of the delegates also joined the Agrarian Party, but Bryn remained in the Conservative Party.^[2]
