John Heywood (1497-1580) est un écrivain anglais connu pour ses pièces, poèmes, et ses recueils de proverbes. Il est né près de Londres, mais est arrivé en Europe pour échapper aux persécutions religieuses en raison de ses opinions catholiques. On pense qu'il est mort à Malines en Belgique). Son fils est le poète et traducteur Jasper Heywood.
