Andrew Forrest Boarman (October 11, 1911 – August 26, 1999) was an American bluegrass and folk musician. He was also well known as a banjo designer, luthier and repairman. From 1962 to 1974, Boarman's Hedgesville barber shop, out of which he ran a music store and instrument workshop, was a popular hangout for musicians from throughout the Southeastern United States. He subsequently became a full-time musician in the mid-1970s, releasing his first album in 1978, and was a popular performer at state fairs and music festivals across West Virginia.
