Arthur L. Jarrett, Jr. (July 20, 1907 in Brooklyn, New York – July 23, 1987 in Los Angeles) born to stage actor and playwright Arthur L. Jarrett, Sr. (1884–1960). Art Jr. was an American singer, actor, and bandleader in the 1930s and 1940s.
Near the end of the 1920s into the 1930s, Jarrett was a member of the dance orchestras of Earl Burtnett, Ted Weems, Jimmy Noone and Red Nichols, playing banjo, guitar and trombone as well as singing. He recorded for Victor and Brunswick. His high tenor voice made him popular in feature films and shorts. He had a record year in 1933, introducing such songs as "Everything I Have is Yours" from Dancing Lady, "Did You Ever See a Dream Walking?" from Sitting Pretty and "Let's Fall in Love" from the movie of the same name.
In 1936, he left Ted Weems to lead his own orchestra. In 1941, he took on the leadership of Hal Kemp's orchestra following Kemp's death in an auto accident. He also appeared in the B western Trigger Pals and on Broadway in Three After Three. From 1933 to 1938, he was married to actress and swimmer Eleanor Holm. In 1932, Jarrett was reportedly engaged to actress Gilda Gray but the marriage never took place.
In the 1950s Jarret was a regular on a television musical show called Rhythm Rodeo, which aired on the DuMont Television Network. Eventually, he became a disc jockey and a salesman.

He died July 23, 1987, in Los Angeles, California.
