Hal March (born Harold Mendelson, April 22, 1920 - January 19, 1970) was an American comedian.

March first came to note as part of a comedy team with Bob Sweeney. The duo had their own radio show for a time.

Earlier in his television career, he appeared on such shows as Burns and Allen The Imogene Coca Show and I Love Lucy. However, he was most known for being the host of $64,000 Question" target="_blank" >*, which he helmed from 1955 to 1958. As a result of the quiz show scandals, the show was canceled and March was out of a job for nearly a decade.

He started hosting another show, It's Your Bet, in 1969, but was diagnosed with lung cancer and died early the next year.
