Naomi Rebekah Wolf is an American feminist author, journalist, and conspiracy theorist. She became widely known after publishing her first book, The Beauty Myth, in 1991, which made her a prominent voice in third-wave feminism. Her work drew both praise and criticism.

In the 1990s, Wolf also worked as a political adviser to the presidential campaigns of Bill Clinton and Al Gore.
