Lillian Hellman

Lillian Florence Hellman (20 Juni 1905 – 30 Juni 1984) adalah seorang pengarang sandiwara, pengarang dan penulis naskah asal Amerika Serikat yang dikenal karena kesuksesannya di Broadway, serta karena ia bersimpati dengan komunis dan berkegiatan politik. Ia dimasukkan dalam daftar hitam oleh House Committee on Un-American Activities (HUAC) pada puncak kampanye anti-komunis 1947–1952. Meskipun ia tetap berkarya di Broadway pada 1950an, masuknya ia dalam daftar hutam oleh industri film Amerika menyebabkan pendapatannya turun. Beberapa orang memuji Hellman karena enggan menjawab pertanyaan dari HUAC, namun pihak lainnya meyakini bahwa ia masuk Partai Komunis, meskipun ia menyangkalinya.
