Lloyd Edgar Lenard (July 29, 1922 – June 11, 2008) was an American businessman from Shreveport, and a former Caddo Parish commissioner, author, United States Navy officer, civic leader, and a pioneer in the establishment of the two-party system in his native Louisiana. He became advertising manager of former Governor James A. Noe’s KNOE radio in Monroe, Louisiana. Lenard became active in the fledgling Louisiana Republican Party. Lenard left KNOE and relocated to Shreveport to where he engaged in the business of life insurance with several companies. As a past president of the Americanism Forum, Lenard engaged in public speaking, mostly before civic clubs and schools. One of his lectures was entitled "Fires of Tyranny." He was moderator of the Shreveport KWKH radio program, "Party Line," in 1961-1962.
