Mike Connors (15. august 1925 - ) je američki glumac najpoznatiji po ulozi privatnog detektiva Joea Mannixa u TV-seriji Mannix, a za koju je nagrađen Zlatnim globusom.

Rođen je kao Krekor Ohanian u armenskoj porodici. Prije početka glumačke karijere je služio u američkom zrakoplovstvu u Drugom svjetskom ratu, a nakon čega je, zahvaljujući talentu za košarku dobio stipendiju za UCLA. Tamo su ga na jednoj od utakmica zapazili hollywoodski agenti, te mu ponudili angažman. Ohanian je promijenio ime u "Mike Connors" da ga ne bi zamijenili za popularnog komičara Georgea O'Hanlona. Njegova najpoznatiji lik je, poput njega, bio Armenac te je u nekoliko epizoda govorio tečnim armenskim jezikom.
