Giovanni Grasso (11 November 1888 – 30 April 1963) was an Italian stage and film actor. He appeared in 82 films between 1910 and 1955. He was born and died in Catania, Sicily, Italy.
Born into a family of marionettists, he was cousin and namesake of Giovanni Grasso, a respected stage actor specialized in the Sicilian language repertoire, so he assumed at the beginning of his career the stage name "Giovanni Grasso Junior" to stand out. He was mainly active on stage, often acting together with his wife, Virginia Balestrieri.
