Phillip Pine (July 16, 1920, Hanford, California – December 22, 2006) was an American film and television actor, writer, director, and producer. Despite incorrect biographical information repeated on many entertainment sites, Phillip Pine was not related to Robert Pine or Chris Pine. He was a regular presence in television and movies from the 1950s to the 1980s. He played both hero, villain, and sympathetic supporting characters throughout his career.

In a career that spanned seven decades, Pine in 1955 portrayed the outlaw John Wesley Hardin in the ninth episode "John Wesley Hardin" of the ABC/Desilu western television series, The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp, starring Hugh O'Brian in the title role. In a later episode of the same series in 1957, Pine again played Hardin, along with Mike Ragan as Clay Allison, Denver Pyle as Ben Thompson, and Mason Alan Dinehart as Bat Masterson, all of whom come to Earp's aid in a shootout with the owner and foreman of the Big T Ranch, Rance Purcell (Richard Devon) and Gus Andrews (Grant Withers).
