George Clinton (1739-1812) was the first governor of New York State. His held office from 30 July 1777 through 30 June 1795.

Before New York was established as an independent State, it was a colony of Great Britain and governors were appointed. The first British colonial Governor of the Province of New York was Richard Nicholls, who served as Military governor 1664--1668.

Before New York was a British colony, it was a colony of the Netherlands and was called New Netherlands. The position that we think of as governor was called Director or Director General. the first Director General of New Netherlands was Cornelis Jacobszoon May who served 1624-1625.
