Frederick Francis Dunkelman (5 or 19 February 1920 – 23 July 2010) was a British ice hockey player who competed at the 1948 Winter Olympics. In St. Moritz he was a member of the British team that placed fifth in the ice hockey tournament. He was born in East Ham, Greater London, and was a member of the Harringay Greyhounds.
