Thomas Overington Walker (7 December 1933 - 26 May 2016) was an Anglican priest and author.

After curacies in Woking and St Leonards he was Travelling Secretary of the Inter-Varsity Fellowship from 1964 until 1967; Succentor at Birmingham Cathedral; and then Vicar of Harborne from 1970 until his appointment as Archdeacon.
Walker has been named in connection with sexual abuse of a female church worker during his time at Harborne.
