Dominick John Lagonegro (born March 6, 1943) is an American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church. He currently serves as an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of New York.

An only child, Dominick Lagonegro was born in a hospital in White Plains, New York, to Dominick R. and Diamentina (née Morgado) Lagonegro, residents of the Silver Lake section of Harrison, New York and parishioners of the church of St. Anthony of Padua. His father's family had emigrated from Calabria in southern Italy, and his mother's family from Turquel in central Portugal. He studied at Cathedral Preparatory Seminary and later at St. Joseph's Seminary in Yonkers.

Lagonegro was ordained to the priesthood by Terence Cardinal Cooke on May 31, 1969, and then served as parochial vicar at St. Vito's Church in Mamaroneck. From 1977 to 1980, he served as parochial vicar at St. Joseph's Church in Kingston, New York and taught at John A. Coleman Catholic High School. He was also parochial vicar at Holy Trinity Church in Poughkeepsie, New York from 1980 to 1989.
