Tim Ryan (July 5, 1889 - October 22, 1956) was an American performer that is probably best known today as a film actor. Ryan, and his wife Irene (the actress who played Granny on The Beverly Hillbillies) were a show business team that performed on Broadway, film and radio. Even after their divorce, the couple occasionally worked together. In the 1940s Ryan found opportunities at Monogram Pictures where he acted in films as well as wrote screenplays. In films of the 1940s and the early 1950s Ryan appeared on screen playing numerous roles as cops, newspaper editors and detectives.

Ryan's son, Tim Ryan Jr., is an entertainment reporter living in Hawaii.
