Harry Maxwell Harrison (born March 12, 1925) is an American science fiction author who has lived in many parts of the world including Mexico, England, Denmark and Italy. He currently lives in Dublin, and is Honorary President of the Esperanto Association of Ireland.

He started working in the science fiction field as an illustrator before becoming an editor but he is now much better known for his writing, particularly his humorous and his satirical science fiction, such as the novels Stainless Steel Rat and Bill, the Galactic Hero.
