Jay Jostyn (December 13, 1901[1][2] – June 25, 1976[3][4]) was an actor in the era of old-time radio. He is best known for portraying the title role in Mr. District Attorney on radio.[5] An article in Radio-TV Mirror in 1952 reported, "He is so generally believed to be a real life lawyer that he frequently receives mail from listeners inviting him to move to certain cities where they feel crimes are going unsolved."[6]
