Hubert Beuve-Méry (5 January 1902 – 6 August 1989) was a French journalist and newspaper editor who was born in Paris and died in Fontainebleau. Before the Second World War, he was associated with the Vichy regime until December 1942, when he joined the Resistance. In 1944, he founded ''Le Monde'' at the behest of Charles de Gaulle. Following the liberation of France, Beuve-Méry built ''Le Monde'' from the ruins of ''Le Temps'' by using its offices, printing presses, masthead and those staff members who had not collaborated with the Germans.
