Э́двард Ви́нсент (Эд) Са́лливан (англ. Edward Vincent "Ed" Sullivan; 28 сентября 1901, Нью-Йорк, США — 13 октября 1974, там же) — американский журналист и телеведущий, наиболее известный благодаря «Шоу Эда Салливана» — передаче, в которой Эд открывал музыкальные таланты. Шоу транслировалось с 1948 по 1971 год, став одним из самых долгоживущих проектов американского телевидения.
В 1996 году Салливан занял 50-е место в рейтинге «50 величайших звёзд телевидения всех времён» по версии американского еженедельника TV Guide.
Программа шла на канале CBS с 21 до 22 часов до марта 1949 года, а затем с 20 до 21 часов и была одной из тех, который продержались в сетке телеканала более двух десятилетий. Практически каждый вид развлечения появился на шоу: оперные певцы, популярные артисты, композиторы, комики, артисты балета, цирковые выступления и драматические актёры, исполняющие монолог из пьесы постоянно появлялись на телешоу.
Первоначально шоу носило название «Toast of the Town», однако распространённым стало название «Шоу Эда Салливана», которое стало официальным названием с 25 сентября 1955 года. С 1948 года до 1965 год шоу было чёрно-белым, но потом стало цветным. Запись телешоу велась через CBS-TV Studio 50, которая стала носить название театра Эда Салливана. Последняя запись шоу (# 1071) была 28 марта 1971 года. На неё были приглашены Мелани, Джоанна Саймон, Дэнни Дэвис и Нэшвил Брас, Сандлер и Янг. Эд Салливан умер через три года после последнего выхода шоу в эфир.
