Daniel Ronald Cox (born Saturday, July 23, 1938 in Cloudcroft, New Mexico) is an American actor, singer/songwriter, and guitarist.

Cox tours regularly with a band, performing at theatres and folk music festivals.

Cox has also appeared as Lieutenant/Captain Andrew Bogomil in Beverly Hills Cop and Beverly Hills Cop II, Richard "Dick" Jones in RoboCop, Mars Administrator Vilos Cohaagen in Total Recall and Senator/Vice-President/President Robert Kinsey in Stargate SG-1.
