Maitland Alexander (1867–1940) was an American Presbyterian minister and church leader who served as the long-time pastor of First Presbyterian Church in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from 1899 to 1929 and became one of the denomination’s prominent clerical figures in the early 20th century. He was born on April 8, 1867, graduated from Princeton University (then the College of New Jersey) and Princeton Theological Seminary, was ordained in 1892, and held earlier pastorates in Long Branch, New Jersey, and Harlem, New York, before his Pittsburgh tenure; he also served as Moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in 1914 and spent a year (1918) as Director of Religious Work for the American occupation army in Germany during World War I. After retiring in 1929, he was pastor emeritus until his death on January 3, 1940; his sermons and addresses from 1898–1927 are preserved in the Maitland Alexander Manuscript Collection at Princeton Theological Seminary.
