George Odlum (1934 - 2003) was a politician and actor from Saint Lucia. He had degree from the University of Oxford and Bristol University. While attending the latter he served as president of the university's student union. He was a member of the Saint Lucia Labour Party and served as foreign minister of Saint Lucia from 1979 until 1981 and from 1997 until 2001. Odlum, who edited a socialist newspaper called The Crusader for many years until his death, was one of the most vocal socialist politicians in Saint Lucia and in the Caribbean. He was a friend of Maurice Bishop, Fidel Castro and Moammar Gadhafi. He often criticized leaders of his own party such as Allan Louisy and Kenny Anthony for not supporting the masses enough. He was fired from his position as foreign minister both times for such comments. Odlum fought for higher wages for agricultural workers, particularly during the 1970s. Among his achievement were the establishment of relations between Saint Lucia and China. He was also one of "four musketeers" of the region. The name was given to a left-wing group which, apart from Odlum, included Dr. Ralph Gonsalves, Rosie Douglas and Tim Hector.

At the time of his death, Odlum hosted a television talk show called "Straight Up" on Saint Lucia television. He died in September 2003 of pancreatic cancer. Known as Brother George to his supporters, he had at least two daughters, Yasmin and Che, and several brothers and sisters.
