Griffey Jay (17 September 1880 – 2 February 1951) was an American background and layout artist for Warner Bros. Cartoons in the 1930s and early 1940s.[1][2] He was never credited for his work at the studio.

In a 1975 interview with Greg Ford, Chuck Jones expressed his low opinion of his work:[3]

"[...] In the first few pictures I worked on, we used a man by the name of Griff Jay, who was an old newspaper cartoonist—and he did what we called 'moldy prune' backgrounds. Everyone used the same type of thing back then."
