Jackie Searl (John E. Searl) (July 7, 1920 - 29 April 1991) was a child actor who began performing on a local Los Angeles radio at the age of 3.

Some of the most memorable films he appeared in include Skippy, High Gear, Peck's Bad Boy, Great Expectations, and Little Lord Fauntleroy. In the 1940s he had some supporting character roles before disappearing for nearly a decade.
