Gordon Connell (March 19, 1923 – June 12, 2016) was an American actor, singer, and dancer.

Born William Gordon Connell in Berkeley, California, Connell married Jane Sperry Bennett (aka Jane Connell), also a native of Berkeley, in 1948. They had two daughters. Jane and Gordon began their careers performing at such San Francisco night clubs as The Purple Onion and The Hungry I.

They gravitated to New York City. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, he performed in revues at the Tamiment Playhouse in the Poconos and in several of the Julius Monk nightclub revues at Upstairs at the Downstairs, including Monk's "Pieces of Eight" and "Dressed to the Nines". He made his Broadway debut in Subways Are For Sleeping in 1961. {{citation needed|date=September 2013}}

Additional stage credits include Hello, Dolly!, Big River and The Human Comedy. The Connells appeared together on Broadway twice: in a musical version of Lysistrata (1972) and The Good Doctor (1998). His television credits include Green Acres, The Love Boat, The Jeffersons, The Incredible Hulk, and Sex and the City. His sole feature film appearance was a small role in Roman Polanski's Rosemary's Baby. {{citation needed|date=September 2013}}

Connell was also a musical theater composer who wrote humorous cabaret songs as well as the score for the award-winning musical Bertha the Sewing Machine Girl. {{citation needed|date=September 2013}}
