Seán O'Grady (1 December 1889 – 7 April 1966), or Seán Ó Gráda in Irish, was an Irish Fianna Fáil politician. He was unsuccessful when he first stood as a candidate for Dáil Éireann at the June 1927 general election, in the Clare constituency, but was elected as a Teachta Dála (TD) there at the 1932 general election. He was re-elected there at every election until he lost his Dáil seat at the 1951 general election. In 1951, he was nominated by the Taoiseach to the 7th Seanad, and in 1957, he was nominated to the 9th Seanad.
O'Grady had been only a few months in the Dáil when he was appointed a Parliamentary Secretary. Over the next sixteen years until 1948 he served in a range of ministries as Parliamentary Secretary, including Lands and Fisheries; Defence; Industry and Commerce; and Finance. He was defeated in his final campaign at the 1957 general election.
