Susan Eloise Hinton (born on July 22, 1948 in Tulsa, Oklahoma) is an American author who wrote five young adult novels in the 1960s and 70s.

Hinton's best known books are The Outsiders (1967) and Rumble Fish, whose film adaptations (directed by Francis Ford Coppola) established the careers of many 1980s film stars such as Matt Dillon, Tom Cruise, Diane Lane, Emilio Estevez, and Mickey Rourke. These books deal with juvenile delinquent and other high school subcultures in the 1960s, but more importantly, teenage rebellion and issues that remain important to young adults today. She also wrote Tex and That Was Then, This Is Now, both also filmed. She wrote her first and most popular novel, The Outsiders, at the age of 17.
