Yojiro Ishizaka (石坂 洋次郎; Ishizaka Yojiro), ( 25 January, 1900 - 7 October 1986) was an influential and popular novelist of post- World War II Japan. His novel Aoi Sanmyaku (青い山脈, literally "Green Mountains", but also translated as "Blue Mountain Range") helped introduce the concept of the "New Japan" - a postwar culture that could look forward to a new future.

While widely popular in Japan, to the point that some of his stories were made into multiple movies, only a small portion of his writings have been translated and published in English.
