Herbert Rolland Percy (August 6, 1920 – December 17, 1996) was a British-born Canadian writer. He was best known for his novel Painted Ladies, a shortlisted nominee for the Governor General's Award for English-language fiction at the 1983 Governor General's Awards. Born in Burham, Kent, England, Percy served for much of his working life in the Royal Navy and the Royal Canadian Navy. He published his first volume of short stories, The Timeless Island, in 1960, and concentrated more extensively on writing after his retirement from the navy in 1971 with the rank of lieutenant commander.
