Jean V Le Clerc , also Leclerc , (* 2nd half of the 16th century, probably in Paris , † around 1637, probably in Paris) was a French engraver, printer and publisher who worked in Paris.
He came from a Parisian printer and publisher family. His father was Jean Le Clerc (1560–1621), who was called Jean IV to distinguish him and from whom Jean V certainly received his training.
Jean V Le Clerc was married first to Denise Sargot and second to Catherine Le Bé, daughter of Guillaume II Le Bé , whom he married in June 1624. His address in Paris is recorded in Rue Saint-Jacques, which was also his father's last.
Jean V Le Clerc contributed to the extensive work of his father Jean IV Le Clerc and continued to cultivate it after his death. Among other things, he then revised and published the atlas Le Théâtre geographique du Royaume de France in further editions.
