Donald Meek (14. jul 1878 - 18. novembar 1946) bio je škotski teatarski i filmski glumac, najpoznatiji po karakternim ulogama u nizu zapaženih filmova klasičnog Hollywooda.

Rodio se u Škotskoj u porodici putujućih akrobata, a kao adolescent je emigrirao u SAD. Nakon što je izbio špansko-američki rat 1898. godine prijavio se kao dobrovoljac u američku vojsku. Tokom službe se zarazio žutom groznicom. Iako je preživio bolest, zbog nje je izgubio svu kosu. Kasnije je to iskoristio za karakterne uloge u teatru, a potom i filmu. Specijalnost su mu postale uloge skromnih, nenametljivih ljudi. Karijeru, tokom koje je snimio preko 100 filmova, okončala mu je smrt od leukemije.
