方宾，钱塘人。
明史卷一百五十一 列传第三十九：
方宾，钱塘人。洪武时由太学生试兵部郎中。建文中，署应天府事。坐罪戍广东。以茹瑺荐，召复官。成祖入京师，宾与侍郎刘俊等迎附，特见委用，进兵部侍郎。四年，俊以尚书出征黎利，宾理部事，有干才，应务不滞。性警敏，能揣上意，见知于帝，颇恃宠贪恣。七年进尚书，扈从北京，兼掌行在吏部事。明年从北征，与学士胡广、金幼孜、杨荣，侍郎金纯并与机密。自后帝北巡，宾辄扈从。
十九年，议亲征。尚书夏原吉、吴中、吕震与宾共议，宜且休兵养民。未奏，会帝召宾，宾言粮饷不足，召原吉，亦以不给对。帝怒，遣原吉视粮开平，旋召还下狱。宾方提调灵济宫。中使进香至，语宾以帝怒。宾惧，自缢死。帝实无意杀宾，闻宾死，乃益怒，戮其尸。
