Richard Quine (November 12, 1920 – June 10, 1989) was an American stage, film, and radio actor and, later, a film director.

Quine's films as director include Bell Book and Candle (1958), The World of Suzie Wong (1960), Paris When It Sizzles (1964), How to Murder Your Wife (1965), and The Prisoner of Zenda (1979). Depressed over poor health, Quine died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in June 1989 at the age of 68.
