Robin Osborne (born March 11, 1957) is an English historian of classical antiquity, who is particularly interested in Ancient Greece. He grew up in Little Bromley, attending Little Bromley County Primary School and then Colchester Royal Grammar School. He was an undergraduate at King's College, Cambridge, where he also took a PhD degree.

Between 1982 - 1986 Osborne was a Junior Unofficial Fellow at King's College, Cambridge. In 1986 he moved to Oxford University, initially as a three year fixed term Fellow at Magdalen College, Oxford before in 1989 being appointed a University Lecturer in Ancient History and a Fellow of Corpus Christi College.

In 2001 Osborne returned to Cambridge to take up the position of Professor of Ancient History and was appointed a Fellow of King's College. He was elected a Fellow of the British Academy in 2006.

He was President of the Society for the Promotion of Hellenic Studies (2002–2006) and is a member of the editorial board of several renowned journals including the "Journal of Hellenic Studies", the "Journal of Mediterranean Archaeology" and the "American Journal of Archaeology".

Osborne is the author of standard monographs on archaic Greek history ("Greece in the Making 1200–479 BC") and on Greek art ("Archaic and Classical Greek Art").
