Thomas Ellis Glover (1891–1938) was a cartoonist, caricaturist, court reporter and journalist, working in New Zealand and Australia.

Glover was born in England but moved to New Zealand as a child. His career is generally considered to have started when, while working as an 'elevator boy' he drew and exhibited caricatures of his passengers. In New Zealand, he cartooned for the Truth (1911–1922) while also contributing to the Free Lance (1918–1922) under the name T Ellis.
