Leland William Frederick Stark (September 5, 1907 – May 8, 1986) was sixth bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Newark, serving from 1958 to 1974.

While at Gustavus Adolphus he rekindled the faith and did some reaching in the Lutheran Church during his junior and senior year.

From 1935 to 1940 he served in a number of parishes in Minnesota until being appointed Dean of Calvary Cathedral in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in 1940.

As bishop he was involved in international peace committees and hence had to travel to countries in Africa and to Vietnam.

In 1967, Stark was involved in a controversy with the Governor of New Jersey Richard J. Hughes for letting a national four day black power conference to take place in the Cathedral house of the diocese.
