Valery Havard (February 18, 1846 November 6, 1927), was a career army officer, physician , author, and botanist.

Havard was born in Compiegne, France. After graduating from the Institute of Beauvais, he studied medicine in Paris before immigrating to the United States. He entered Manhattan College and the medical department of the University of New York, in New York, graduating from both in 1869. For a time thereafter he was house physician in Children''s Hospital and professor of French, chemistry, and botany at Manhattan College.
