Barbara Paul is an American writer of detective stories and science fiction. She was born in Maysville, Kentucky, in 1931 and was educated, "inter alia", at Bowling Green State University and the University of Pittsburgh.

A number of her novels feature in-jokes: for example "Full Frontal Murder" borrows various names from the British TV series "Blake's 7".

There is another Barbara Paul, whose real name is Barbara Ovstedal. She wrote a few books under this pseudonym but later changed to Rosalind Laker when another Barbara Paul came on the scene. Her many books include "The Sugar Pavilion" and "To Dance with Kings".
