Michael Finneran (born 10 September 1947) is a former Irish Fianna Fáil politician. He was a Teachta Dála (TD) for the Roscommon–South Leitrim constituency from 2007 to 2011, and also served as a Minister of State.[1]

A former psychiatric nurse, Finneran was first elected to Dáil Éireann at the 2002 general election for the Longford–Roscommon constituency. He was previously a member of Seanad Éireann from 1989 to 2002.[2]
