**James Fenimore Cooper** (15.9. 1789 – 14.9. 1851.) bio je plodni i popularni američki pisac ranog 19. vijeka. Posebno je poznat po romanima pomorske i historijske tematike, potonje sakupljene u ciklus *Leatherstocking Tales*, čiji je glavni junak Natty Bumppo. Među njegovim najpoznatijim djelima se nalazi romantični roman *The Last of the Mohicans* (*Posljednji Mohikanac*), koga mnogi drže remek-djelom.
