Michael Roland Daniel (born April 13, 1940) served as the 84th Lieutenant Governor of South Carolina. He served from 1983 to 1987 concurrently with his fellow Democrat, Governor Richard Riley.

Daniel was educated at the University of South Carolina, where he was a member of the Euphradian Society and graduated in 1962 with a B.A. in Journalism. He graduated from the USC School of Law in 1965.
