"Tiny" Larsen is a character in Robert A. Heinlein's short story Delilah and the Space-Rigger. He is a former semi-pro football player, who attended the fictional Oppenheimer Tech. As the story opens, Tiny is the construction supervisor, the head "space-rigger," on Space Station One, the first space station to be built in Earth's orbit. He is never given a proper first name in the story.

When a female radio technician is assigned to the station, Tiny is at first angry, but realizes his men would all quit if he fires her. He swallows his pride and asks that more female crewmen be sent to the station.
