Sir Reginald Alexander Dallas Brooks (Cambridge, 22 agosto 1896 – Melbourne, 22 marzo 1966) è stato un generale e politico britannico.
Era l'unico figlio di Dallas George Brooks, e di sua moglie, Violet Ruth Shepherd. Studiò al Dover College e si unì ai Royal Marines nel 1914. Durante la prima guerra mondiale fu gravemente ferito durante gli atterraggi a Gallipoli nel 1915. Ha preso parte al Raid di Zeebrugge nel 1918.
Brooks si laureò presso la Royal Navy Staff College nel 1934 e dal 1943 è stato Direttore generale (militare) del Political Warfare Executive[1]. Nel 1946 è stato nominato Comandante Generale dei Royal Marines nel grado di tenente generale[1]. Fu promosso a generale nel 1948 e si ritirò nel maggio 1949[1].
Brooks è stato nominato Governatore di Victoria dal premier Thomas Hollway, carica he ricoprì dal 1949 al 1963[2]. Durante il suo mandato come Governatore agì in qualità di amministratore del Commonwealth per tre volte[1].
Brooks servì lo Stato per oltre 13 anni, diventando il governatore più longevo di Victoria.
Sposò Muriel Violet Turner Laing ed è il nonno della giornalista e conduttrice televisiva Jennifer Byrne. Dopo aver terminato la sua carica, Brooks scelse di rimanere in Australia in pensione. Fece costruire una casa a Frankston e vi morì tre anni dopo, nel 1966.
Dallas Brooks era Gran Maestro della Gran Loggia Unita di Victoria (1951-1963)[3]. Nel 1969 la Gran Loggia Unita di Victoria costruì una sala da concerto a East Melbourne. La sala è stata ribattezzata nel 1993 da Dallas Brooks Hall a Brooks Dallas Center ed è ancora un'importante sede di eventi a Melbourne.
