Chris Parry, born in the United Kingdom on May 23, 1952, was an acclaimed transatlantic theatre and opera lighting designer originally from England and resided in San Diego. He taught lighting design in the University of California, San Diego, Theatre and Dance Department from 1988-2006.

His work included 160 British and American regional theatre and opera designs, as well as several Broadway productions, a section of the film Renaissance Man, and several retail design products in San Diego. Among his credits was The Who's Tommy, directed by Des McAnuff, for which he won a Tony Award. Other highlights of his career include 24 productions for the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), lighting design for The Blue Angel, The Secret Garden and A Midsummer Night's Dream. He also worked with the Royal National Theatre in England, the Los Angeles Opera, the La Jolla Playhouse, and the Opera Theatre of Lucca in Italy.
