Brush Glacier is a broad glacier in the northwest part of Bear Peninsula in Marie Byrd Land, Antarctica, flowing west into the Dotson Ice Shelf north of Jeffrey Head. It was first mapped by the United States Geological Survey from air photographs taken by the United States Navy in January 1947, and was named by the United States Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Bernard E. Brush, a station engineer at the Byrd very low frequency substation in 1966.
