Benjamin Chapin (August 9, 1872 – June 2, 1918) was an American stage actor best known as an impersonator of Abraham Lincoln. From childhood Chapin had an obsession with the assassinated president, and had a lengthy career playing him on the Lyceum circuit and in vaudeville. In 1906 he wrote a play Lincoln which was staged at the Liberty Theatre on Broadway following directly on from a production of the play The Clansman by Thomas Dixon Jr.
