Allen William Thurman (May 1847– 15 November 1922) was president of the Ohio Board of Administration in 1912. He was president of the American Association in 1890 and 1891 where he was known as "The White Winged Angel of Peace", so called because he helped negotiate the end of the labor strife that had resulted in the formation of the Players' League and the weakening of the finances of organized baseball. He was replaced by Louis Kramer.
