Dorothy Ford (born April 4, 1923, in Perris, California) is an American actress and model active during the 1940s through 1960s.

She began her career as a model, largely due to her extreme height of 6 feet, 2 inches (188 cm) and a 38-26-38-and-a-half figure. In 1944, she made her screen debut in Lady in the Dark and as Coffy Smith in an Andy Hardy movie Love Laughs at Andy Hardy (1946). She continued her acting career, including a role in Abbott and Costello's 1952 film, Jack and the Beanstalk, Love Laughs at Andy Hardy (1947)]] until 1966, when she put in her final (and uncredited) performance in British film The Wrong Box. She made 39 movies from 1943 to 1962.
