Myron W. Fohr (born 17 June 1912 in Milwaukee, died 14 January 1994 in Milwaukee) was an American racing driver. He came second two consecutive times in the AAA championship in 1948 and 1949, scoring four wins. Fohr entered the Indianapolis 500 when it was a Formula 1 race in 1950 and 1951. Driving for Scuderia Maremmana in 1950, he finished in second place. This prompted Alfa Romeo to offer him a drive for the remaining European season. He competed in the Belgian and French Grands Prix, without success. The next year, he again competed at Indianapolis for Alfa Romeo, where he finished fourth. He retired from racing soon thereafter.
