Tom Nolan (born January 15, 1948) is a Canadian-American actor whose career dates back to his work as a child star in the 1950s and early 1960s.

Nolan was born Bernard Girouard in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, to parents of French and Irish descent. His family moved to Beverly in Essex County in northeastern Massachusetts, where he immediately started dance classes. His television debut was as Edward, Prince of Wales, the son of Henry VIII, on NBC's Hallmark Hall of Fame. The jug-eared lad often portrayed young boys with afflictions, such as a crippled youngster on an episode of CBS's My Friend Flicka or an asthmatic on NBC's Medic, the first television medical series. He appeared in two episodes of the NBC anthology series, Thriller: as a disturbed young boy in "Child's Play" and as a violently protective brother in "Parasite Mansion".

At the age of ten, Nolan was cast as Jody O'Connell in the NBC Western series Buckskin, which ran for thirty-nine episodes from July 3, 1958 to September 14, 1959. It started as a summer replacement series for The Ford Show, Starring Tennessee Ernie Ford and was held over after a month's hiatus in October 1958. It was repeated in the summers of 1959 and 1965.
