Lloyd Corrigan (October 16, 1900 – November 5, 1969) was an American film and television actor, producer, screenwriter, and director who began working in films in the 1920s.

His short La Cucaracha won an Academy Award in 1935.
À partir de 1939 et jusqu'en 1967, il est exclusivement acteur, participant durant cette période à cent-trois films américains, comme second rôle de caractère, entre autres dans les genres de la comédie, du film musical et du western. Mentionnons Planqué malgré lui (1950) de John Ford et Un monde fou, fou, fou, fou (1963) de Stanley Kramer, l'un de ses trois derniers films.
À la télévision, Lloyd Corrigan contribue à un téléfilm en 1960, et surtout à cinquante-six séries, entre 1952 et 1966, notamment dans le même genre du western (voir sa filmographie ci-dessous).
Enfin, au théâtre, il joue une seule fois à Broadway (New York) en 1933, dans la pièce Her Man of Wax, mise en scène par le futur réalisateur Arthur Lubin (son premier film sort l'année suivante).
Il est le fils des acteurs James Corrigan (1867-1929) et Lillian Elliott (1874-1959).

Deep down, however, they know that Shaw is a cold, sad, unsympathetic loner.

In seventeenth century Paris, poet and supreme swordsman Cyrano de Bergerac (José Ferrer) stops a play from being shown because he cannot stand the bombastic style of the principal actor, Montfleury (Arthur Blake). An annoyed aristocratic fop, the Vicomte de Valvert (Albert Cavens), provokes him into a duel by tritely insulting Cyrano's enormous nose. Cyrano first mocks his lack of wit, improvising numerous inventive ways in which Valvert could have phrased it (much to the amusement of the audience). He then composes a ballade for the occasion on the spot and recites it during the swordfight. With the last line, he stabs his opponent.
