Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie (gebore 19 Junie 1947) is 'n Brits-Indiese romanskrywer en essayis.[1] Sy tweede roman, Midnight's Children, het in 1981 die Booker-prys gewen. Sy kontroversiële vierde roman, The Satanic Verses, het internasionaal opspraak gewek toe die ajatolla Ruhollah Khomeini as gevolg daarvan 'n fatwā vir Rushdie se teregstelling op 14 Februarie 1989 uitgevaardig het.
Rushdie woon sedert 2000 in Amerika, waar hy by die Emory Universiteit werksaam was. Hy is verkies na die American Academy of Arts and Letters. In 2012 publiseer hy Joseph Anton: A Memoir, welke sy lewe beskryf in die nasleep en kontroversie oor The Satanic Verses.
