George Huddleston (born March 19, 1920 in Birmingham - died September 24, 1971 in Washington D.C.) was the Representative of the 9th Congressional District of Alabama from 1955 to 1963, and an at-large member of the House from 1963 to 1965.

Huddleston was an attorney and served in the U. S. Navy during World War II before he ran for office.

Huddleston's congressional seat was eliminated following the 1960 Census. The Alabama Legislature's eventual solution to redistricting, known as the Chop-up Bill, divided Jefferson County among four other congressional districts.

Huddleston is buried at Elmwood Cemetery.
