Daniel Joseph "Dan" O'Sullivan (1927 - 30 November 2013) was an Irish Gaelic footballer who played as a full-forward for the Cork senior team.[1]

Born in Carrigadrohid, County Cork, O'Sullivan first arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of twenty-four when he first linked up with the Cork junior team. He made his senior debut in the 1950 championship. O'Sullivan went on to play a key role for the team over the next few years, however, it was a period of provincial dominance for Kerry. He was a Munster runner-up on two occasions.
