Geraldine Elizabeth Carmichael (1927 – February 2004) was an American automobile executive and convicted fraudster. During the 1970s energy crisis, Carmichael promoted a prototype for a low-cost fuel-efficient car via Twentieth Century Motor Car Corporation, which was never produced, and fled with investor money. She was captured in 1989, and served 18 months on fraud charges.
