David Spencer Ware (b. Plainfield, New Jersey, November 7, 1949 – October 18, 2012) was an American jazz saxophonist.

He recorded with Andrew Cyrille and Cecil Taylor, and has led his own quartet since the early 1990s. Pianist Matthew Shipp and double bassist William Parker have been in Ware's quartet steadily; drummers have changed: following Marc Edwards, Whit Dickey, Susie Ibarra and Guillermo E. Brown.
