Judžin Gledstoun O'Nil (engl. Eugene Gladstone O'Neill; Njujork, 16. oktobar 1888 — Boston, 27. novembar 1953) je bio američki pozorišni pisac, i dobitnik Nobelove nagrade za književnost 1936. Njegove drame su bile među prvima koje su u američki teatar unele realizam, karakterističan za pisce Antona Čehova, Henrika Ibzena i Augusta Strindberga. O'Nilove drame su na scenu uvele replike izgovorene u žargonu običnog sveta. Junaci njegovih drama su marginalci koji se bore za svoje ideale, ali završavaju u razočaranju i očaju. O'Nil je napisao samo jednu bolje poznatu komediju - „Ah, divljina“ (Ah, Wilderness!).^[1]^[2] Skoro sva njegova ostala dela imaju elemente tragedije i ličnog pesimizma.
