Jeffrey Hayden (born in New York City, New York, 1926) is an American television director and producer.

His career as a director began in the late 1950s, when he directed the only feature film to his credit, The Vintage (1957), starring Pier Angeli and Mel Ferrer. He then turned to television, beginning with episodes of Leave It to Beaver and 77 Sunset Strip. Hayden went on to direct a wide variety of shows throughout the 1960s, '70s, and '80s, many of which are considered classics. Among these are The Andy Griffith Show, The Courtship of Eddie's Father, the western comedy Alias Smith and Jones, and In the Heat of the Night.

On October 28, 1951, Hayden married screen actress Eva Marie Saint. They have two children.
