Perry Timothy Jecko (January 24, 1938 – January 11, 2005) was an American competition swimmer who represented the United States at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne, Australia. He swam for the second-place U.S. team in the qualifying heats of the men's 4×200-meter freestyle relay. Jecko did not receive a medal, however, because only relay swimmers who competed in the event final were eligible under the 1956 Olympic rules. In 1983, he acted on Broadway in Woman of the Year with Debbie Reynolds.
