Tim McIntire (July 19, 1944 – April 15, 1986) was an American character actor, probably most famous for his portrayal of disc jockey Alan Freed in the film American Hot Wax (1978). He portrayed country music singer George Jones in the 1981 television movie Stand By Your Man, which was based on the best-selling autobiography by country music singer Tammy Wynette.

McIntire co-starred in the 1968 pilot Justice For All (which later became All In The Family) as Dickie. After it became a series with Carroll O'Connor as Archie Bunker, the part of the son-in-law was renamed Mike and played by Rob Reiner.

He had a role in Shenandoah (1965) as one of James Stewart's sons. His other films included The Thousand Plane Raid (1969), The Sterile Cuckoo (1969), Aloha, Bobby and Rose (1975), The Gumball Rally (1976), The Choirboys (1977), Brubaker (1980), Fast-Walking (1982) with James Woods, and Sacred Ground (1983).

McIntire appeared in the 1965 episode "The Lawless Have Laws" of the syndicated series, Death Valley Days, in the role of Lorenz Oatman, a young man seeking his long lost sister, Olive Oatman, played by Shary Marshall. In the story line, Oatman obtains the help of an Army officer, Lieutenant Colonel Burke, played by Ronald W. Reagan, also the series host. The siblings were separated five years earlier when Apaches killed their parents in a raid. Olive was subsequently sold to the Mohave.
