Apollodorus of Tarsus (Greek: Ἀπολλόδωρος ὁ Ταρσεύς) was a tragic poet of ancient Greece, who is mentioned by Eudocia and in the Suda as having written six tragedies (Child-Killer, Greeks, Odysseus, Supplicants, Thorn-Scourged, and Thyestes);[1] only the titles of these plays have survived. Nothing further is known about him.
There is another Apollodorus of Tarsus, who was probably a grammarian, and wrote commentaries on the early dramatic writers of Greece.[2][3]
