Cecil Louis Troughton Smith, Cecil Scott "C. S." Forester izengoitiaz ezaguna (Kairo, 1899ko abuztuaren 27a - Fullerton, Kalifornia, 1966ko apirilaren 2a) ingeles eleberrigilea izan zen.

Umetan Ingalaterrara joan zen amarekin. Ez zituen medikuntza ikasketak amaitu eta 1921ean idazten hasi zen. Bigarren Mundu Gerran Estatu Batuetara joan zen eta britainiar propaganda zerbitzuan lan egin zuen. Han Roald Dahl ezagutu zuen eta gerrako esperientziaz idaztera animatu zuen.

Bere eleberri ospetsuenak Horatio Hornblower itsas armadako ofizialari buruzko 12 liburuak dira, Napoleondar gerretan. Bere eleberrietako batzuk, The African Queen kasu, filmak inspiratu zituzten. Detektibeen eleberriak eta Bigarren Mundu Gerran girotutako istorio laburrak ere idatzi zituen.
