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 Summer Olympics, a boycott thereof prevented their entry into the competition.[2] During training sessions he was sometimes the brunt of jokes and was jokingly referred to by the nickname Chiclets.[3]
