Colin Keith Gray is a Canadian actor, writer and film director. He played Frank Hardy on the TV show The Hardy Boys for thirteen episodes. He is known for directing the documentary film Freedom's Fury.

Gray was born in the American city of Ann Arbor, Michigan before his family moved to the Canadian city of Ottawa.

He played on the high school water polo (the sport of his future film Freedom's Fury) team for Lisgar Collegiate Institute. Gray also performed in various productions by the Orpheus Musical Theatre Society and at the Ottawa Little Theatre.

After high school, he moved backed to the States and graduated with degrees in political science and French literature from the University of Michigan ("Michigan") during a time when his sister (Megan Raney Aarons) and mother moved to the United Kingdom. After graduating from Michigan, Gray moved to New York City where he eventually earned a role in the Broadway production of Buddy – The Buddy Holly Story.

In 1995, Gray returned to Canada to perform in a lead role (Frank Hardy) alongside Paul Popowich (playing Joe Hardy) in the Toronto production of The Hardy Boys, produced and syndicated by New Line Television, a division of New Line Cinema. The characters were portrayed as in their early twenties, Frank working as a reporter and Joe still in college. The show was co-produced by Canadian broadcasting company Nelvana and was dubbed in French for airing in Quebec and France as well as in the United States. The show only lasted for one season of thirteen episodes due to poor ratings.
