Danny Everett (born November 1, 1966) is a 400 metre runner from the United States. As a 21-year-old he participated in the 1988 Summer Olympics and won a bronze medal in the individual event and a gold medal with the United States 4x400 m relay. In 1991, he came third in the World Championships' final in Tokyo behind his countryman Antonio Pettigrew and Roger Black from the United Kingdom.

At the 1992 U.S. Olympic Trials in New Orleans, Everett beat a world class field and clocked a time of 43.81 sec., which was then the second-fastest time ever-run in the history of the event. He travelled to the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona as the favourite to win the gold medal, but injured himself before the final.

He currently lives in Southern California and coaches the cross-country AND track and field teams of the Windward School in Mar Vista.
