Theodore Walter Myers (January 11, 1844 – March 20, 1918) was a Jewish-American banker who served as New York City Comptroller.
During the American Civil War, he helped organize the Sickles Brigade and served as captain of its Third Regiment for a time.
He proved so satisfactory as Comptroller that in the 1890 election County Democracy, Tammany Hall, and the Republican Party all nominated him for re-election.

They had one child, George L.[3] Rosalie died, and in 1915 he married Rose Alexis Knight of Boston in a ceremony performed by Rabbi Rudolph Grossman.
