Rodney Rowland (born February 20, 1964) is an American actor. He is credited as Rod Rowland in more recent productions, given his prediliction to being called Ron.

His first big break was in James Wong and Glen Morgan's science fiction war drama, Space: Above and Beyond in 1995. Despite auditions that were disastrous, Morgan and Wong brought Rowland on board as Lt. Cooper Hawks. During the shoot for the Space: Above and Above episode, "Who Monitors the Birds?", he became ill due to over work, succumbing to two bouts of exhaustion and bronchitis.

Rowland would later work with Wong and Morgan again on The X-Files in the episode "Never Again", working alongside Gillian Anderson. He would later date Anderson until 1998.
