George Alexander Parks (May 29 1883–May 11 1984) was an American Republican politician who was the Governor of Alaska Territory from 1925 to 1933. He was born in Denver, Colorado.

Parks died at the advanced age of 101 in 1984. When he died he was the earliest living governor of any US state, after his death, the title went to Alfred M. Landon who would eventually also become a centenarian.

The Parks Highway (Alaska Route 3) which runs from Anchorage to Fairbanks, Alaska was re-named in his honor in 1975.
