James Arthur Baldwin (2 Agustus 1924 – 1 Desember 1987) adalah penyair, novelis, dramawan, eseis, kritikus sosial berkebangsaan Amerika Serikat. Esei-nya yang terhimpun dalam buku Notes of a Native Son (1955), menggali seluk beluk rasial, seksual, perbedaan kelas yang belum terungkap di masyarakat Barat, terutama di pertengahan abad ke-10 di Amerika Serikat.^[1] BBeberapa esei karya Baldwin merupakan buku-buku tebal, seperti The Fire Next Time (1963), No Name in the Street (1972), dan The Devil Finds Work (1976). Sebuah manuskrip yang belum terselesaikan, Remember This House, dikembangkan dan diadaptasi ke dalam film berjudul I Am Not Your Negro dan masuk nominasi dalam Academy Award untuk kategori film dokumenter.^[2]

Ibunya, Emma Berdis Jones, meninggalkan ayahnya sebab mengalami kekerasan akibat minuman keras dan pindah ke Harlem, New York. Di sana, dia menikah dengan seorang pengkotbah, David Baldwin. Keluarga ini sangat miskin.

Baldwin menghabiskan banyak waktu untuk menjaga adik-adiknya. Pada usia sepuluh tahun, dia mengalami kekerasan oleh dua orang perwira polisi New York, sebuah contoh gangguan rasis oleh NYPD yang menjadi pengalaman masa remaja dan didokumentasikan dalam eseinya. Ayah angkatnya, yang di dalam esei Baldwin disebut singkat sebagai "ayahnya", tampil menolongnya —dibandingkan dengan saudara-saudaranya—dengan kekerasan besar.^[3]

Baldwin menempuh pendidikan di P.S. 24 di 128th Street antara Fifth dan Madison Avenues Harlem, di mana dia menuliskan lagu sekolah yang digunakan sampai sekolah itu tutup.^[4] Sekolah menengahnya dijalani di Frederick Douglass Junior High di mana dia terpengaruh oleh puisi karya Countee Cullen, sosok penting di Harlem Renaissance, dan juga didorong oleh guru matematikanya untuk menjadi editor surat kabar sekolah, The Douglass Pilot.^[5]^[6] Kemudian dia melanjutkan ke DeWitt Clinton High School, di Bronx's Bedford Park.^[7] Di sama, bersama Richard Avedon, Baldwin bekerja di majalah sekolah sebagai editor sastra, tetapi tidak disukai selalu menghina ras.^[8]
