Jonathan Mangum (born January 16, 1971) is an American actor and comedian. He was a cast member of the variety show The Wayne Brady Show and is the announcer for the game show Let's Make a Deal.

Mangum was born in Charleston, South Carolina and grew up in Mobile, Alabama. After high school, he moved to Orlando and graduated from the University of Central Florida with a degree in psychology. While in Orlando, Mangum started his comedy career at the SAK Comedy Lab alongside Wayne Brady, whom he would later collaborate with in Drew Carey's Improv-A-Ganza, The Wayne Brady Show and Let's Make a Deal. He moved to Los Angeles in 1995 to pursue a career in comedy.

Mangum guest-starred in several episodes as the owner of a web-based start-up company on The Drew Carey Show. He has toured with Drew Carey's Improv All-Stars, establishing himself as an improv comedian and was also a regular cast member on Drew Carey's Green Screen Show. At the beginning of 2011, he and Brady made guest appearances in the British comedy series Fast and Loose, an improv show similar to Whose Line Is It Anyway?. He was a regular performer in Drew Carey's Improv-a-ganza and performed in improvisational singing games, along with co-stars like Jeff B. Davis and Charles Esten.

Starting March 27, 2020, Mangum began live-streaming the show Ujokes, a comedy game show that features two professional comedians. Contestants play mini-games and compete for who has the funniest joke, which is decided by the audience. Along with the comedians, the audience can compete with their own jokes, and the winner from the audience is invited to join next week's stream for a segment. The show is live-streamed on Twitch and YouTube every Monday.

Mangum made guest appearances on ER, Reno 911!, and Just Shoot Me!. In addition to his work in television and on stage, Mangum has also appeared in over 100 national American commercials.
