Hugh Montgomery is an American mathematician, working in the fields of analytic number theory and mathematical analysis. He earned his PhD from the University of Cambridge and now teaches at the University of Michigan.

He is best known for his development of the large sieve methods and for co-authoring (with Ivan M. Niven and Herbert Zuckerman) one of the standard introductory number theory texts, "An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers", now in its fifth edition (ISBN 0471625469).
