Raymond Bloomer (December 9, 1886 – November 1, 1948), was an American actor. He appeared in 22 films between 1913 and 1927.

After receiving a scholarship, Bloomer left Rochester, New York, when he was 18 and went to New York to study music at a conservatory. Another student's illness led to his taking a part in a play. He went on to act in stock theater companies in several cities, including Buffalo, Detroit, and Montreal. His work in films included Vitagraph productions.[1]
