Katrina Elizabeth „Kate“ DiCamillo ist eine US-amerikanische Schriftstellerin, die vor allem für ihre preisgekrönten Kinderbücher bekannt ist.

Kate DiCamillo wurde 1964 in Philadelphia geboren. Als sie fünf Jahre alt war, verließ ihr Vater die Familie. Ein Verlust, mit dem sie bis heute zu kämpfen hat. Sie studierte englische Literatur in Florida und lebt heute als freie Schriftstellerin in Minneapolis. Mit ihren ersten beiden preisgekrönten Kinderbüchern „Winn-Dixie“ und „Kentucky-Star“ gelang ihr der internationale Durchbruch. Für Despereaux – Von einem, der auszog das Fürchten zu verlernen wurde die Autorin 2004 mit der Newbery Medal geehrt. Das Buch, das 2005 für den Deutschen Jugendliteraturpreis nominiert war, diente als Grundlage für den Kinofilm Despereaux – Der kleine Mäuseheld. 2019 wurde DiCamillo mit der Regina Medal ausgezeichnet.
