Henri Dejvid Toro (engl. Henry David Thoreau; 12. jul 1817 — 6. maj 1862; pravo ime Dejvid Henri Toro) bio je američki pisac, prirodnjak, transcedentalist, borac protiv poreza, kritičar razvoja i filozof. Najpoznatiji je po knjizi Walden, eseju Građanska neposlušnost, meditacijama na temu jednostavnog života u prirodnom okruženju, pozivu na nenasilni otpor i građansku neposlušnost kao izraze protivljenja nepravednoj državi.

Torove knjige, članci, eseji, dnevnici i pjesme zajedno tvore 20 tomova. Među njegovim najpoznatijim djelima se navode filozofija i prirodne nauke u kojima je predvidio metode i dostignuća ekologije i ambijentalne istorije, dva izvora današnjeg ambijentalizma.

Toro je cijelog života bio abolicionist, koji je u svojim predavanjima napadao Zakon o odbjeglim robovima istovremeno hvaleći djela Wendella Phillipsa i braneći abolicionistu Johna Browna. Torova filozofija nenasilnog otpora je uticala na doktrinu i praksu kasnijih velikih ličnosti kao što su Lav Tolstoj, Mahatma Gandi i Martin Luther King, Jr.
