Brian Fairbanks (born June 16, 1981 in Hartford, Connecticut) is the Washington, DC and White House Correspondent for Billionaires For Wealthcare, a satirical political group. He is also the New York group's Director of Public Relations.

He appears on Free Speech Television's Weekly "Big Business Minute," the Billionaires TV show, as Buddy O'Bush. He is also featured in the mockumentary film "Get on the Limo," which premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival. The film follows Fairbanks, as his alter ego O'Bush, and colleagues as they disinform the masses in the swing states during the 2004 Presidential Campaign (his trusty sign "Repeal The First Amendment," printed over an official Bush-Cheney '04 poster board, is seen throughout.)

Fairbanks first ignited controversy with the book "The World's Own," which was due to released by Utah and Colorado's Northwest Publishing in 1999. The novel was removed after the Columbine shootings, which drew striking parallels to "The World's Own." The book has never been issued, although media reports in April 1999 mentioned that a staff member of Northwest Publishing feared one of his children had taken the uncorrected proofs to Columbine High School and loaned it to a friend.

His regular Sunday column for the Hartford Courant newspaper, which ran in the paper's Arts & Entertainment section from 1995 to 1999, was the subject of great acclaim and featured out-of-left-field interviews with Mick Jagger and other notables. The entire staff of the Courant received a Pulitzer Prize nomination in 1999 for Excellence in Reporting.

He has worked on several bestselling nonfiction booksellers, including many from Dr. Stephen E. Ambrose's World War II series. He was an assistant editor on Fear and Loathing in America, the second volume of Hunter S. Thompson's letters, and on The Windblown World: The Journals of Jack Kerouac, 1947-1954, both edited by Douglas Brinkley.

Fairbanks lives in Brooklyn, New York.
