Jason Gray-Stanford (born May 19, 1970) is a Canadian film and television actor. He is best known for playing the hapless Lieutenant Randy Disher in the TV program Monk and is recognized by anime fans as the voice of Kento Rei Faun in Ronin Warriors and the original English voice of Raditz and Cui in the Ocean Group dub of Dragonball Z, as well as the voice of Shinnosuke in the English dub of Ranma 1/2 and the voice of Joe Higashi in the Fatal Fury OVAs and The Motion Picture. He also appeared on an episode of Stargate SG-1. He is also well known as the first voice of Yusaku Godai in Maison Ikkoku. However, after episode 36, the dubbing of the series was halted due to poor sales, during which the dubbing company lost contact with Stanford as well as several other actors. Since episode 37, Godai has been voiced by Brad Swaile. He also voiced Donatello (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) in the 1996 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation.

He holds a BFA degree from the University of British Columbia in theatre. He has done extensive dubbing work for various Japanese anime movies and series, and also contributed background vocals to Russell Crowe's 30 Odd Foot of Grunts album Gaslight. He has also played Deputy Bobby Michan in the 1999 movie Mystery Alaska and appeared in the 2001 movie A Beautiful Mind, both starring Russell Crowe.

He also starred in the 2006 Clint Eastwood movie Flags of our Fathers as Lieutenant Schrier. He is a Vancouver Canucks fan and periodically blogs for NHL.com.
