Arthur Richard Jackson (7 December 1874 – 12 January 1957) was an English-born Australian politician.
He was born in Stourbridge to wood pattern maker David Jackson and Sarah Dinah Hall.
He came to Newcastle, New South Wales, at the age of twelve and worked in the coal mines.
He travelled widely around Australia and New Zealand, and around 1895 married Ellen Andrews, with whom he had three children.
He left the Labor Party in 1932 after supporting the Premiers' Plan, and was defeated in the election of that year.
