Cyril Alston Pearl (11 April 1904 – 3 March 1987) was an Australian journalist, author, and television personality.
Pearl was born in the Melbourne suburb of Fitzroy, Victoria on 11 April 1904 to Jewish gem-dealer Joseph Pearl and his wife Goldy, both immigrants from Britain.
He was educated at Scotch College, Melbourne, and Hale College, in Perth, after the family moved to Western Australia.

There he became a freelance writer, producing hundreds of articles, columns and reviews for magazines and newspapers, including The Sydney Morning Herald, Nation, Nation Review and the Weekend Australian.
He also wrote books, more than twenty of them, in the last three decades of his life.
He had a special interest in social history, biography and politics, and research for these works sometimes took him overseas.
His book Wild Men of Sydney, exposing corruption in colonial Sydney, was published in 1958.
As an editor he published many great Australian writers, including Lennie Lower.
He made a brief return to journalism after Rupert Murdoch persuaded him to become editor of The Sunday Mirror in Sydney in 1960.
