Mark Edward Weber (born October 9, 1951) is the director of the Institute for Historical Review, an American Holocaust denial, and right-wing organization based in Newport Beach, California.

Weber was born in Portland, Oregon in 1951. After graduating from Jesuit High School in 1969, he studied history at the University of Illinois in Chicago. He continued his studies for two semesters at the University of Munich, and, returning to Oregon, took a B.A. degree in history with high honors from Portland State University. In graduate school, he continued his study of history at Indiana University, receiving an M.A. degree in modern European history in 1977. Beginning in 1978 Weber became involved with the National Alliance, a far-right white supremacist organization. In 1979 Weber served as the editor of the group's magazine, the National Vanguard. Throughout the 1980s Weber functioned as the treasurer of the National Alliance's Cosmotheist Community Church, a white-supremacist religious entity founded by William Luther Pierce. During this period Weber became more heavily involved with the IHR as well as collaborating with Bradley Smith and the Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust (CODOH).
