Leon Dunkins Claxton (April 5, 1902 – November 14, 1967) was an American vaudeville performer turned producer who led the revue Harlem in Havana, which was staged for several decades and was a feature at the traveling Royal American Shows. An African American, his show featured black performers during the segregation era, and he came to be described as "one of the first African-Americans to find great success and infamy in the outdoor entertainment industry". Claxton also built a resort hotel for African Americans in Tampa, Florida.
