Barney Sarecky (May 7, 1895 – August 10, 1968) was an American film producer and screenwriter, from the late 1930s into the 1950s. The younger brother of producer/screenwriter Louis Sarecky, he had a much more prolific career, writing or producing almost 75 films. Beginning as an associate producer, he would continue in that role until late in his career, when he would move up into the producer role, beginning with 1947's Trailing Danger. In the early 1950s he would move from the big screen to the smaller screen, working as the associate producer on the highly successful television series, Adventures of Superman. He worked on two small television movies in the mid-1960s, and he was an associate producer on the short-lived television series, The American West, in 1968, shortly before his death on August 10.
