Felton Perry (born September 11, 1945) is a retired American actor.[1] He is most notable for his roles as Deputy Obrah Eaker in the 1973 movie Walking Tall, and as Inspector Early Smith in the 1973 movie Magnum Force, the second film in the Dirty Harry series.[2] Felton's other well-known role is in the 1987 science fiction movie RoboCop as Donald Johnson, an executive at the corporation Omni Consumer Products (OCP). He reprised his role as Johnson in the sequels RoboCop 2 (1990) and RoboCop 3 (1993).

Perry is also a playwright known for such plays as Buy the Bi and Bye which in 1976 the Progress Bulletin called an "offbeat and hilarious black satire with a zinging performance by Ron Thompson."[3][4]
