Andrew Leslie Fulenwider (born March 1860 in Monroe County; died March 30, 1920 in Birmingham) was president of the Birmingham Realty Company.

Fulenwider was the son of Daniel and Mary Ann Fulenwider. He married the former Virginia Harney and had two children, Howard and Leslie.

In December 1898 Fulenwider partnered with Henry Badham Sr to purchase and renovate O'Brien's Opera House. Fred Grambs and Ben Theiss continued to lease and operate the theater. The property changed hands again on March 28, 1899 when Joseph R. Smith Jr and Charles J. Smith bought it for $75,000. Fulenwider's father died in 1904, leaving his property to Andrew.

Fulenwider left the Birmingham Realty Company in 1908 and was succeeded by his general manager, Isaac Beatty Jr.

Fulenwider died in 1920 and is bured at Oak Hill Cemetery.
