Johnny Carson (Corning, 23 ottobre 1925 – West Hollywood, 23 gennaio 2005) è stato un conduttore televisivo e comico statunitense, noto per aver condotto per oltre trent'anni il popolare The Tonight Show, per l'emittente statunitense NBC. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale, Carson prestò servizio in marina. Nel dopoguerra, cominciò una carriera alla radio. Anche se il suo show riscuoteva un grande successo già alla fine degli anni sessanta, fu durante gli anni settanta che egli divenne un'istituzione della televisione statunitense, e rimase tale fino al suo ritiro dalle scene nel 1992. Il suo stile si caratterizzava per un approccio di conversazione rilassato, con grande interazione da parte degli ospiti, un atteggiamento condiviso anche dai precedenti conduttori del Tonight Show Steve Allen e Jack Paar. David Letterman citò sempre Carson come una delle sue influenze principali.
