Kevin Girard Murray[1] (born March 12, 1960) is an American lawyer and former politician.

[3] Prior to his election to the assembly, Murray practiced law in the areas of entertainment, real estate, insurance, and dependency.

He also provided consulting and management services to artists in the entertainment industry.

[2] In the early 2000s, Senator Murray was vigorous in his advocacy on behalf of creative workers in the entertainment industry.

These measures were strongly opposed by the RIAA; the contract oriented bill (SB 1246, which would have amended the CA Labor Code) failed to pass, but the audit bill (SB 1034) was passed.
