Józef Arkusz ( 1921 - 1996) was a Polish film director and producer of over 70 educational films.

Józef Arkusz was born in Peratyn, Poland (modern day Ukraine, near Tarnopol) in 1921. He moved to Lwów in the early 1930s, and took part in the underground movement Armia Krajowa as a partisan during World War II. Following the war he moved West to the industrial city of Lódz, in central Poland, where he began studying biology.

He attended the University of Poznan, and received a degree in Biology. He furthered his education by attending and graduating from the Lódz Film School (1953), renowned for other famous graduates such as Roman Polanski and Krzysztof Kieslowski.

He worked on minor films and projects until the 1960s when he began to be noticed by the international community. At this point his career took off and he made some of his most famous educational films. Working at the Educational Film Studio (Wytwórnia Filmów Oswiatowych) in Lódz, he created General Topic Films (Filmy Oswiatowe), and is credited as being one of the most influential Polish documentary film makers. He pioneered new methods of filming and documentary production, which are now used as standard practice around the world.
