John William King (October 10, 1918–August 9, 1996) was an American lawyer, jurist, and Democratic politician from Manchester, New Hampshire. He practiced law in Manchester and served in the New Hampshire House of Representatives. After his three terms as Governor, he served on the New Hampshire Supreme Court from 1979, and as its Chief Justice from 1981 until 1986.

King was a Roman Catholic and after his death in 1996 he was buried in the "New St. Joseph's Cemetery" in Bedford, New Hampshire.

He was a major hawk during Vietnam and felt Eugene McCarthy's election "would bring joy in Hanoi".
