Martin Bernard McGowan (died 1958) was an Irish politician and teacher. He was first elected to Dáil Éireann as a Sinn Féin Teachta Dála (TD) for the Leitrim–Sligo constituency at the 1923 general election.[1] He did not take his seat in the Dáil due to Sinn Féin's abstentionist policy. He did not contest the June 1927 general election.[2] He stood as a Clann na Poblachta candidate at the 1951 and 1954 general elections for the Sligo–Leitrim constituency but was not elected.
