Синклер Луис (енгл. Sinclair Lewis; Сок Сентер, 7. фебруар 1885 — Рим, 10. јануар 1951), био је амерички књижевник и Нобеловац.

Рођен је 1885, имао је живот испуњен разноврсним искуствима, корисним за стварање широке визије америчког друштва, чију ће снажну слику дати у својим романима. Тако је он, рецимо, прекинуо студије на универзитету Јејл, и отишао да ради на Панамском каналу. А онда се вратио на Јејл и дипломирао, 1908. Наредних година је пуно путовао по Америци, радећи као извештач многих листова и агенција. У почетку, док још није нашао свој прави пут, писао је булеварску прозу, приче и романе, све док 1920. није објавио роман „Главна улица” и постигао огроман успех. За кратко време било је распродато пола милиона примерака, а роман је преведен на безмало све европске језике.

Уследили су потом романи:„Краљевска крв”,„Бебит”, „Елмер Гантри”, „Човек који је познавао Кулиџа”, „Додсворт”, „Мартин Ароусмит”, „Ана Викерс”, „Уметничко дело”, „То је овде немогуће”. Њима је Луис избио у ред великих реалистичких писаца савремене Америке, с подједнаким познавањем описујући живот различитих слојева и врло различитих јунака. Снажна сатиричка, критичка нота изазивала је често противречне реакције јавности. Од похвала критике и слободоумних интелектуалаца – до позива на бојкот, линч, хапшење! Синклер Луис је један од најславнијих писаца такозване изгубљене генерације. Нобелову награду за књижевност добио је 1930. године. Преминуо је 1951.
