Tom Tully (August 21, 1908–April 27, 1982) was an American film actor. The former Navy seaman and junior reporter for the Denver Post went into acting because he felt the pay was better. Colorado-born Tully started out on stage before eventually acting in Hollywood films in 1944. He received an Oscar nomination for the role of the first commander of the "Caine" in 1954's The Caine Mutiny, with Humphrey Bogart. From 1954 through 1960, Tom Tully played the role of Inspector Matt Grebb on the TV detective series Lineup. His last role was as a crooked gun dealer in Don Siegel's thriller Charley Varrick (1973).
