Steve Christiansen (born November 10, 1956) is an American rower. He competed in the men's eight event at the 1976 Summer Olympics.[1]

Although he trained with the same team to be part of the 1980's Summer Olympics, a boycott thereof prevented their entry into the competition. During training sessions he was sometimes the brunt of jokes and was jokingly referred to by the nickname Chiclets. [2]
