Thomas Aloysius Cantwell (December 23, 1887 – April 1, 1968) was a Major League Baseball pitcher for the 1909-10 Cincinnati Reds.

In 1914 he founded T.A. Cantwell and Co., a paper company in Washington DC. In the 1920s, Thomas Cantwell would be joined by William Cleary, and the company would be renamed Cantwell-Cleary Packaging. This company, by the same name, is still successfully serving the Baltimore to Richmond region.
