Folmar Blangsted (October 6, 1904 – August 11, 1982) was born in Denmark and settled in the United States; he is noted as the film editor for more than seventy feature films and television programs. In 1937 Blangsted directed two films, the westerns Westbound Mail and The Old Wyoming Trail (both for the Columbia Pictures Corporation). His first editing credit was for The Doughgirls (1944), which was produced by the Warner Bros. studio. At that time, it was customary for film editors working for the Hollywood studios to work for several years as uncredited assistant editors. Blangsted worked on films and television programs for Warner Bros. into the 1970s. Blangsted's last credit is for a 1976 film Face of Darkness that was produced in England.

Blangsted was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Film Editing for Summer of '42 (1971), and he won the American Cinema Editors Eddie award for the film. He had been selected for membership in the American Cinema Editors.
