Dennis Holmes (born October 3, 1950, in Encino, California) is a former child actor whose longest-running role was from 1961 to 1963 as the orphaned Mike Williams in more than fifty episodes of the NBC western television series Laramie, starring with John Smith, Robert Fuller, Spring Byington, and Stuart Randall.

On September 23, 1961, Holmes joined the Laramie cast in the episode "Dragon at the Door," which focuses on Japanese entertainers headed east. Their wagon breaks down near the Sherman Ranch, and they bring along with them the injured and unconscious Mike Williams, whom they had found on the trail. Holmes' role as Mike Williams supersedes that from the first two seasons of Andy Sherman, played by Robert L. Crawford, Jr. Mike is allowed by a judge to live at the Sherman Ranch and Relay Station, pending the location of any next of kin, which never happens. Mike becomes like a much younger brother to series characters Slim Sherman (John Smith) and Jess Harper (Robert Fuller). Spring Byington, as the ranch housekeeper Daisy Cooper, joins the cast in "Ladies' Day", the second episode of the third season, and fills the role of surrograte grandmother for young Mike. Holmes's last appearance was in the episode "Trapped", which aired on May 14, 1963.

Mary Sharron (Susan Hayward) has lost her husband to a forest fire. To help her run the ranch, she hires Fred Carter (Stephen Boyd), a handy man. A handsome, but taciturn fellow who has known much tragedy, Fred works hard for her. Robbie Sharron (Dennis Holmes), the woman's son, resents him, and when he learns that his mother is planning to marry him to quell ugly rumors in town, the youth is most unhappy. After the wedding, the stepfather treats the boy harshly, not out of cruelty, but because he wants to prepare the boy to survive the tough life ahead. This creates friction and frustration. Sometimes Fred beats both Mary and Robbie. On the day the wife learns she is pregnant, Robbie and Fred get into a violent fight.
