William David McIntyre {{post-nominals|country=NZL|OBE|size=85%}} (born 1932) is a New Zealand historian. The son of a congregationalist minister, he attended Caterham School as a boarder from ages eight to eighteen, which coincided with WW2, perhaps inspiring his later interests. He moved to New Zealand in the late 1960's with his wife and five children, due to being offered a position as professor of history at the University of Canterbury, Christchurch, where he worked until retiring from that position in 1997.^[1]. He remains a professor emeritus of history and continues to write and research.

He is an expert on the constitutional and military histories of the Commonwealth of Nations and British Empire, and it was in this capacity that he is published and has advised governments. He served as consultant to the Committee on Commonwealth Membership, and compiled its report which was accepted by Heads of Government at Kampala in 2007.^[2]

In the 1992 Queen's Birthday Honours, McIntyre was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire for services to historical research.^[3]
