Oliver Barr McClellan (born 1939) is an American entrepreneur, counsel and author who became widely known by his 2003 book Blood, Money & Power on the Kennedy assassination.
Some of McClellan's cases included litigation for exploding Ford Pintos, tobacco-caused expenses on the health care system and the licensing and regulation of cell phones.

On April 2, 2004, after having three historians examine the charges, The History Channel issued a press release stating that the claim of LBJ's complicity "is entirely unfounded and does not hold up to scrutiny.... [The show] fell short of the high standards that the network use to set for itself.
