Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (24.9., 1896 – 21.12.,1940) bio je američki pisac romana i novela koje su obilježile jazz eru. Smatra se jednim od najvećih pisaca 20. vijeka. Fitzgerald pripada grupi koja se nazvala "Izgubljenom generacijom," Amerikancima rođenim 1890-ih, a koji su sazreli za vrijeme prvog svjetskog rata. Napisao je četiri romana, peti ostavio nedovršeni, a opus mu uključuje mnoge novele na temu mladosti, očaja i starenja.
