Gaston Arman de Caillavet ( born March 15, 1870 in Paris, † January 15, 1915 in Essendiéras ) was a French dramatist and librettist.

The son of Léontine Lippmann, which maintained an important Paris Salon and was known as a muse of Anatole France, began his writing career as director of a small revue theater on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower.
