Nationality Czech
Occupation Soldier, political activist
Known for Leader of the National Renaissance Party

Andrej Lisanik (died 1980) was a Czech veteran of World War II who assumed leadership of the American neo-Nazi National Renaissance Party upon its founder, James Madole's death in 1979. Lisanik was an officer in World War II, and immigrated to the United States soon after. He was a veteran of the Security Echelon and chosen as leader of the NRP by Madole's mother.[1]

His tenure as leader of the National Renaissance Party was cut short, however, as Lisanik was killed by a mugger in 1980. The party soon fell apart, as most of the party documents were in Lisanik's car at the time of his murder.[2]
