Léon Gandillot (20-25 January 1862 [1][2] – 21 September 1912) was a French playwright.
Gandillot was the nephew of the librettist and dramatist Hector Crémieux. In 1886, his first comédie en vaudeville Les Femmes collantes gave him the opportunity to be known very quickly. He later gained other successes with comedies such as La Mariée récalcitrante, La Course aux jupons, and Ferdinand le noceur. Two of these plays have until now been adapted to film: Les Femmes collantes twice, in 1919 by Georges Monca and in 1938 by Pierre Caron as well as Ferdinand le noceur in 1934 by René Sti.
