Ronald Anthony "Ron" Berry was a Welsh writer of English language novels and short stories. Many of Berry's books reflect the working class of the industrial Rhondda Valleys where he grew up and lived for most of his life.

Largely overlooked during his lifetime, Berry has more recently been embraced by contemporary Welsh authors including Rachel Trezise and Niall Griffiths, and also by contemporary researchers.

The Glamorgan County History series describes Berry as "...unjustly neglected... ...whose fiction thrives on those very aspects of Rhondda life that broke the spirit of Gwyn Thomas's imagination."
