Bruce Botnick is a noted American record engineer and producer, best known for his work with The Doors, and with Love. He engineered Love's first two albums, and co-produced their third album, Forever Changes, with the band's singer-songwriter, Arthur Lee.

In November 1970 he took over production of The Doors' L.A. Woman album -- their last with lead singer Jim Morrison -- after the band's long-serving producer Paul A. Rothchild fell out with the group over the album's direction.

Botnick had a long-running association with film composer Jerry Goldsmith as his scoring recordist and mixer. Botnick first met Goldsmith on 1979's and they worked together on most of Goldsmith's film projects - numbering over 100 - from the 1980s through to Goldsmith's death in 2004.
