Larry Joe Campbell (born November 29, 1972) is an American actor best known for his role as "Andy" on the ABC sitcom According to Jim.

Born in Cadillac, Michigan, Campbell received a Bachelor's of Applied Arts in theater at Central Michigan University and a Master of Arts in theater at Wayne State University. His first high profile TV guest star role probably was as "the fan" in a February 2000 episode of Friends. The next year he was cast as "Andy" on According to Jim. He has also appeared in movies, such as Wedding Crashers, Showtime, as "locker room cop #2", and in commercials, such as Ballpark hot dog commercials as "Frank", and a PSA for the V-chip on ABC, as Jim's "Andy".

Campbell performed improvisational comedy with the Second City Detroit, and it was there where he was discovered when Bob Saget performed with the group and was impressed enough by Campbell to let his manager know about him. Campbell also dabbles in playwriting, he's a member of the comedy troupe the 313, and he has starred in a one-man play he wrote, Terry vs. the Towel Lady at Planet Ant in Hamtramck, Michigan.

Campbell is married to schoolteacher Peggy Campbell, and together they have four children: Gaby and Nate, and twins Madelyne Kay and Maxwell Elliot. The birth of the twins was featured on TLC's A Baby Story.

Campbell is expecting his fifth child later this year.
