Woodrow Parfrey (October 5, 1922 – July 29, 1984) was an American film and television actor in the 1960s-early 1980s.
Described as "one of the most interesting character actors to emerge on American film and television in the 1960s", Parfrey was noted for bringing "a quirky charisma to every role he played, from shopkeepers to space-age simians." His noted turn as the unbalanced informer in Broadway's "Advise and Consent" (1961) set the standard for his offbeat, conspiratorial persona in dozens of TV and movie appearances into the 1980's.
He is the father of Adam Parfrey.
