The Reverend Carl P. Daw, Jr. M.A., M.Div., Ph.D. (born in Louisville, Kentucky in 1944) is an American Episcopal priest. In 1996 he was appointed Executive Director of the Hymn Society in the United States and Canada.

Son of a Baptist pastor, he moved frequently with his father throughout Tennessee during his youth. He obtained his B.A. at Rice University, his M.A. and Ph.

He served on the committee that created the 1982 Episcopal hymnal, and served in a variety of roles related to sacred music before his appointment to the directorship in 1996.
