James Hilton (9. septembar 1900 - 20. decembar 1954) bio je engleski književnik, najpoznatiji kao autor fantastično-pustolovnog romana Izgubljeni horizont. Taj roman, kao i Goodbye, Mr. Chips su kasnije poslužili kao predlošci za klasične hollywoodske filmove. Sam Hilton je od 1930-ih radio kao scenarist u Hollywoodu, te 1942. osvojio Oscar za najbolji adaptirani scenario za film Mrs. Miniver. Prozu mu je karakterizirao sentimentalni odnos prema "jednostavnijoj" prošlosti, slavljenje tradicionalnih engleskih vrlina, kao i nezadovoljstvo suvremenom civilizacijom i njenoj sklonosti destruktivnim ratovima.
