Rudy Bowman (December 15, 1890 – October 29, 1972)[citation needed] was an American actor.

During World War I, Bowman's throat was injured by shrapnel, causing him to lose his voice. His recovery and subsequent work as an actor were featured on The Rudy Bowman Story, a program broadcast on CBS radio on August 17, 1949.[1]

Bowman played mostly small and uncredited roles in various westerns, such as in 1961’s Gunsmoke episode "The Squaw”. His film appearances include She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949). He also guest starred as Robert E. Lee in The Twilight Zone episode "The Bard".
