Phillip Reed (March 25, 1908 – December 7, 1996) was an American actor. He was perhaps best known for his role as Steve Wilson in a series of four films (1947–1948) based on the Big Town radio series.
Reed was a star athlete at Erasmus Hall High School in Brooklyn and attended college for one year before going into acting. Born Milton LeRoy, his name was changed after he went to Hollywood.
Billed as Milton Leroy, Reed appeared in two Broadway plays: Melody and Ballyhoo of 1932.
Reed played Russ Barrington in the soap opera Society Girl on CBS radio and Brian Wells in the soap opera David Harum, also on CBS.
Reed's television appearances include a lead role in the 1955 anthology drama series Police Call. He also appeared as King Toranshah in the 1965 Elvis Presley musical film Harum Scarum.
