	Actors - Francis L. Urry

Francis L. Urry (January 23, 1908 - May 1985) was a Utah-based actor. He is best known for his work in the films Johnny Lingo, Uncle Ben, and Windows of Heaven. He can also still be heard as the male narrator of the Mormon Miracle Pageant.

Urry began his performing career as a private teacher in 1937 and he worked for several years at radio station KSL in Salt Lake City, Utah. He eventually began working on network television and radio, in addition to work in live theater.

Instead of relocating to New York or Los Angeles, Urry chose to base his career out of Utah because he believed that state to be a better place to raise his family. Much of his work involved films produced by Brigham Young University.

Urry's most visible role is probably that of the small store owner on a Polynesian island in the film Johnny Lingo.
