Harvey Sid Fisher (born December 14, 1940 in Bronx, NY) is a singer/songwriter/musician, actor, model, and screenwriter. He is best known for writing and performing mostly humorous songs about astrology, golf, the battle of the sexes, quitting smoking, the F-word, and wanting his mommy. Greg Beets of the Austin Chronicle called him the "undisputed king of astrology songs."

Fisher has referred to himself as "one of L.A.'s top ten thousand photographic models," later upping the number to ten million.

Fisher had moved from New York to Los Angeles in 1969 to further pursue acting and music.

Fisher has gotten small acting parts on television and in film since 1967. Some of his credits include I Dream of Jeannie, Marcus Welby, M.D., The New Perry Mason, Kojak, Barnaby Jones, The Young and the Restless, Scrooged, and Lethal Weapon 3.”

As Harvey Fisher, he sold a screenplay titled Final Recourse which was filmed in Texas in mid-2013 and is now in post production starring Chazz Palminteri, Teri Polo, and Terese Carrera.

Fisher concurrently worked as a model, and musical performer. He made his first recording in the late 80s. He wrote the material for Astrology Songs from 1986 to 1987, which features songs about each of the twelve Astrological signs. Fisher was able to self-finance the recording of the album from the royalties he received from appearing in Lincoln Continental TV commercial. Astrology Songs eventually got a proper release in 1993 on Amarillo Records.
