John Archibald Wheeler
John Archibald Wheeler (9 Juli 1911 – 13 April 2008) adalah seorang fisikawan teoretis Amerika Serikat yang membangkitkan ketertarikan terhadap relativitas umum di Amerika Serikat selepas Perang Dunia II. Wheeler juga bekerja dengan Niels Bohr dalam menjelaskan prinsip-prinsip dasar fisi nuklir. Sebagai salah satu pendukung Albert Einstein, ia mencoba membuat teori penyatuan medan yang divisikan oleh Einstein. Ia juga dikenal karena mencetuskan istilah "lubang hitam", "buih kuantum", dan "lubang cacing", serta frasa "it from bit".
Wheeler menjabat sebagai profesor di Universitas Princeton dan mengajar banyak fisikawan yang banyak menyumbang untuk bidang mekanika kuantum dan gravitasi.
