John Michael "Jack" Quinn (born August 16, 1949) is an American lawyer and businessman. He is a Democratic activist and consultant.

Quinn attended Georgetown University, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1971. He later attended Georgetown University Law Center, where he was an Editor of the Georgetown Law Journal, while also serving as a staff member on the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Nutrition and Human Needs (1969-1973) and, later, as a legislative assistant to Senator Floyd K. Haskell of Colorado (1973-1975). He was graduated with a J.D. in 1975.

At the age of 26, from 1975 to 1976, Quinn directed Mo Udall's presidential campaign. Later Quinn became a partner at Arnold & Porter in Washington, D.C., working there for almost 20 years. He taught as an adjunct professor of constitutional law at Georgetown University Law Center and served as a Democratic National Committee appointee.

He served as general counsel to the presidential campaigns of Senators Gary Hart and Bob Kerrey and was both counsel and communications director to Senator Al Gore's 1988 presidential campaign. He was again a Gore advisor during Gore's campaign as Bill Clinton's running mate in the 1992 election, coordinating Gore's preparation for the vice-presidential debates.
