Arthur Lee Kinsolving Jr. (August 30, 1938 – December 4, 1974), known professionally as Lee Kinsolving, was an American film, theater and television actor. In 1960, Kinsolving was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor at the 18th Golden Globe Awards for his role as Sammy Goldenbaum in the film, The Dark at the Top of the Stairs. He lost the award to actor Sal Mineo.

Kinsolving was born on August 30, 1938, in Boston, Massachusetts, where his father, Rev. Arthur Lee Kinsolving, was serving as the rector of Trinity Church at the time. Father Kinsolving later became the rector of St. James' Episcopal Church, which brought the family to New York City. Kinsolving began his acting career on Broadway.

Kinsolving's acting credits include performances on nearly two dozen prominent television series during the 1950s and 1960s. For example, in a 1959 episode of The Rifleman he performed as Tim Elder, the son of an alcoholic father played by Dabbs Greer. That same year Kinsolving played Jammie Murdock in an episode of Have Gun Will Travel titled "The Sons of Aaron Murdock". Later, in 1964, on The Twilight Zone episode "Black Leather Jackets", he was cast as Scott, an alien who falls in love with a human, Ellen Tillman, portrayed by Shelley Fabares. In 1964 Kinsolving also guest starred on Gunsmoke as identical twin brothers, one good and one evil, in an episode titled "The Other Half".
