伊莱沙·格雷(,)是美國電氣工程師、發明家、教師和企業家。1835年8月2日,格雷在俄亥俄州巴恩斯維爾出生。1876年,格雷因為在伊利諾州高地公園發明電話原形而聞名,同時他被視為是現代音樂合成器之父,在其名下還擁有70多項發明專利。格雷還是西方電氣製造公司的共同創辦人兼執行長,並在公司成立後不久,自行收購該公司的多數股權。1901年1月21日,格雷在麻薩諸塞州密德瑟斯郡牛頓維爾逝世。
格雷與安东尼奥·梅乌奇、亞歷山大·格拉漢姆·貝爾等人,經常被視為是首批的研究者。最近一些作者認為,格雷應該被視為是真正的電話發明者,並指稱是亞歷山大·格拉漢姆·貝爾竊取格雷的想法。雖然格雷已經持續進行電話實驗長達兩年的時間,但是在許多法院判決中,仍然維持貝爾擁有電話的專利。
