Jeremy John Gray () é um historiador da matemática britânico.
Gray estudou matemática na Universidade de Oxford e na Universidade de Warwick, onde obteve um doutorado em 1980, orientado por David Fowler (e Ian Stewart). A partir de 1974, esteve na The Open University em Milton Keynes, onde é desde 2002, professor de história da matemática.
Publicou o diário matemático de Carl Friedrich Gauß A commentary on Gauss mathematical diary, Expositiones Mathematicae, Volume 2, 1984, p. 87–130 e uma nova edição da biografia de Gauß por Waldo Dunnington.
Foi palestrante convidado do Congresso Internacional de Matemáticos em Berlim (1998: The Riemann Roch Theorem and Geometry. 1854–1914). The Riemann-Roch Theorem and Geometry, 1854-1914 no ICM Berlim
Dentre seus doutorandos consta June Barrow-Green.
