Lawrence Bender (born October 17 1957) is an American film producer. He rose to fame by producing Reservoir Dogs in 1992 and has produced all of Quentin Tarantino's films since with the exception of Death Proof.

In the 1980s, he worked as a grip on the syndicated anthology series Tales from the Darkside. In 1989, he produced the film Intruder, in which leading roles are Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell. In addition, he has been the producer on many other successful movies including Good Will Hunting, The Mexican, the 2007 Academy Award winning film An Inconvenient Truth, Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, and the From Dusk Till Dawn trilogy. He was an executive producer of the Legend of Earthsea TV miniseries.

Bender makes cameo appearance in many of the films he produces: he was a police officer chasing Mr. Pink in Reservoir Dogs, a customer – billed as a "long-haired yuppie scum", a role he also played in Four Rooms – at the diner in Pulp Fiction and a hotel clerk in Kill Bill Volume 2.

Since May 2005 Bender has been a contributing blogger at The Huffington Post. He now works in Hollywood running the day-to-day operations of his own production company, Lawrence Bender Productions. Bender has been working with Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor to create a television TV series based on the 2007 album Year Zero.^[1]
