Julio Antonio Miranda (b. 17 October 1946, Manuel García Fernández) is an Argentine Justicialist Party politician. He sits in the Argentine Senate representing Tucumán Province in the majority block of the Front for Victory. He was formerly governor of Tucumán.

Miranda was elected a Senator in 1992. In 1999, Miranda was elected Governor of Tucumán by just 6,800 votes. His four years saw considerable controversy and fierce opposition from the Republican Force Tucumán party led by Antonio Bussi and his son Ricardo. At the end of his term in 2003, Miranda stood again for the Senate. His party's candidate José Alperovich beat the younger Bussi for the governorship.

From 1997 to 1999, Miranda was President of the football club Club Atlético Tucumán.
