Donald Eugene O'Brien (September 30, 1923 – August 18, 2015) was a United States district judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Iowa and the United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa.
He was an officer in the United States Army Air Corps in World War II, a Democratic nominee for the United States House of Representatives, a United States Attorney, and a political organizer.
O'Brien was born in Marcus, Iowa to Michael J. and Myrtle O'Brien on September 30, 1923.
He interrupted his college coursework at Trinity College in Sioux City, Iowa to serve as a lieutenant in the United States Army Air Corps from 1942 to 1945.
He flew 30 bombing missions over Europe and receiving the Distinguished Flying Cross.
After completing his undergraduate studies at Trinity College, he entered Creighton University School of Law, graduating in 1948 with a Bachelor of Laws.

He married Ruth Mahon in 1950.
In 1952 he chaired the Adlai Stevenson's presidential campaign in his Iowa congressional district.
After serving as the County Attorney of Woodbury County, Iowa from 1955 to 1958, he served as a Sioux City municipal judge from 1959 to 1960.
In 1958 and again in 1960 O'Brien was the Democratic nominee to represent Iowa's 8th congressional district in the United States House of Representatives, but lost both races to longtime Republican incumbent Charles B. Hoeven.
In 1961 President John F. Kennedy appointed him the United States Attorney for the Northern District of Iowa, a position he held until 1967.
From 1962 to 1979 Iowa had three federal district judges — one in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Iowa, one in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa, and a third serving both Districts.
He was in private practice in Sioux City from 1967 to 1978.
Soon after leaving office, he became an advance man in the 1968 presidential campaigns of Robert F. Kennedy, then George McGovern, and later Hubert H. Humphrey.
He organized McGovern's general election campaign in Southern California in 1972 and Jimmy Carter's general election campaign in Michigan in 1976.
In 1977 he served as special counsel to a subcommittee of the United States House Committee on Small Business for its investigation of anti-competitive practices in the meat industry.

O'Brien was confirmed by the United States Senate on October 4, 1978, and received his commission on October 5, 1978.
