David John Conner KCVO (born 6 April 1947) is Dean of Windsor (since 1998) and former Bishop to the Forces (2001–2009).
As Dean of Windsor, Conner also holds the post of Registrar of the Order of the Garter and is a domestic chaplain to Elizabeth II. Prior to his appointment to Windsor, he held a number of posts: from 1987, he was Vicar of Great St Mary's, Cambridge (the University church), until he was consecrated as Bishop of Lynn (a suffragan bishop in the Diocese of Norwich) by George Carey, Archbishop of Canterbury, on 2 February 1994 at St Paul's Cathedral.
Conner was educated at Exeter College, Oxford and St Stephen's House, Oxford. He was ordained as deacon on 29 June 1971 by Christopher Pepys, Bishop of Buckingham at St Martin's, Fenny Stratford (and presumably as priest about a year later). Having also spent a year at the Oxford Department of Education, soon after ordination he moved into chaplaincy at St Edward's School, Oxford (from 1971 to 1980) and later at Winchester. For a while, he was an examining chaplain to the Bishop of Winchester.
