Diarmuid O'Hegarty (Irish: Ó hÉigeartaigh; 1892–1958) was an Irish revolutionary and civil servant. He was a member of the Irish Volunteer executive (June 1916 – November 1921), IRA Director of Communications (July 1918 – March 1920) and Director of Organisation (March 1920 – April 1921). O’Hegarty was an extremely self-effacing man whom Frank Pakenham called the "civil servant of the revolution".
