John Edward Masefield (Ledbury, Herefordshire, 1878ko ekainaren 1a - Abingdon, Oxfordshire, 1967ko maiatzaren 12a) ingeles olerkari eta idazlea izan zen.

Sei urte zituenetik umezurtz eta izeba baten zaintzapean, hamahiru urterekin HMS Conway ontziratu zen eta hiru urte eman zituen nabigatzen. Irakurle garratza izan zen eta itsasontzian istorio asko ikasi zituen. Hurrengo urteetan nabigatzen jarraitu zuen 1895ean New Yorken lehorreratu zen arte. Herrian arlote gisa ibili ondoren, lana aurkitu zuen Nuev Yorken. 1897an Ingalaterrara itzuli zen.

Ordutik aurrera poema liburuak eta eleberriak argitaratzen hasi zen. 1930ean saritutako olerkari (poet laureate) izendatu zuten.
