Jack Gage (December 26, 1912 – January 4, 1989) was an American film and television director.

From 1934 to 1940, and billed as John Gordon Gage, he worked as a stage manager and occasional actor on Broadway.[1][2] In 1942, he began his career in films as a dialogue director; his credits in that capacity include I Married a Witch, Double Indemnity, A Stolen Life, Sister Kenny, and Mourning Becomes Electra, the latter two films starring Rosalind Russell.[1][3]

After directing the feature The Velvet Touch, also starring Russell, Gage turned to the emerging medium of television.[4] His small-screen credits include an adaptation of Jane Eyre for Studio One,[5] the comedy series The Egg and I,[6] the drama series Foreign Intrigue,[7] Schlitz Playhouse of Stars,[8] the documentary series You Are There,[9] and The New Adventures of Charlie Chan.[10]
