Barry York Tubb (born February 13, 1963) is an American actor and director. He has worked in both television and film since 1983.

A Lone Star native with a lanky but athletic frame, blond Barry Tubb has always felt at home on the range. Born in Snyder, Texas on February 13, 1963, he won the state bull-riding championship at age 15 (junior division), then broadened his horizons by lassoing an acting career to boot. Graduating from Snyder High School in 1981, he began his stage training in San Francisco and showed enough hutzpah to try Hollywood in the mid 1980s. He initially drew attention on TV series work and in topical mini-movies dealing with sensitive issues. Following a regular role on the short-lived baseball ensemble series "Bay City Blues" (1983) and a recurring one as a rookie cop on "Hill Street Blues" (1981), he showed extreme promise as both a shy homosexual who comes out to his parents and faces the repercussions therein in Consenting Adult (1985) (TV), and as a preppy corporate upstart involved in murder in Billionaire Boys Club (1987) (TV). Barry peaked, however, playing Jasper Fant in the epic westerns "Lonesome Dove" (1989) (mini) and its sequel "Return to Lonesome Dove" (1993) (mini), which were partially set in his native Texas. Once he cemented his reputation on TV, Barry gravitated towards film with supporting roles in Mask (1985), Legend of Billie Jean, The (1985) and as Wolfman in Top Gun (1986), but stardom proved elusive. In 1988, he co-starred with Mary Tyler Moore and Lynn Redgrave appearing fully nude in the Broadway production of "Sweet Sue," which had a respectable run of 164 performances. The following year he appeared butt naked again, this time on film, in the sexy drama Warm Summer Rain (1989) opposite Kelly Lynch (I). The tall, fair-looking fellow with a slight but appealing awkwardness eventually grew disenchanted with Hollywood and turned to independent filming as well as other interests. At one point he actually moved to France (1991) and rode in a Wild West show. Spreading his wings to include off-camera activity, he starred, directed, produced and co-wrote the cowboy and Indians lowbudget Blood Trail (1997) (V), but it did not lead to any other major offers. Sporadically seen these days, Barry returned to his youthful roots directing the family film Grand Champion (2002), the exploits a young boy who raises a prize-winning steer and struggles to save it from the slaughterhouse. He shot the film in his own hometown of Snyder.
