Mr. Hollywood Jr., 1947 is the fifth album by Michael Penn, originally released independently in 2005 on Mimeograph Records (Penn's United Musicians label) and distributed through SpinART Records. Legacy Recordings licensed the album for a 2007 reissue that included bonus tracks and a video.

The album's themes are framed by Penn's fascination with events taking place in 1947, which he describes as "the year everything changed." It is named for a Raymond Lark painting Penn had initially intended to use as the album's cover.
