Ross Macdonald adalah nama samaran utama yang digunakan oleh penulis Amerika-Kanada beraliran fiksi kejahatan. Nama aslinya Kenneth Millar(/ˈmɪlər/; 13 Desember 1915 – 11 Juli 1983). Ia terkenal karena serial novel hardboiled yang dibuat di California Selatan dan menampilkan detektif swasta Lew Archer. Sejak tahun 1970-an, karya-karya Macdonald (khususnya novel-novel Archer) telah mendapat perhatian di kalangan akademisi.[1][2][3] untuk kedalaman psikologis mereka,[4][5] rasa tempat,[6][7][8] penggunaan bahasa,[9] citra yang canggih[10] dan integrasi filsafat ke dalam genre fiksi.[11]

Dibesarkan di provinsi Ontario, Kanada, Macdonald akhirnya menetap di negara bagian California, di mana ia meninggal pada tahun 1983.
