Jack Heath is an Australian writer of young adult fiction. He has resided in Canberra since age 9. Heath is best known for writing the Six of Hearts series, for being one of Australia's youngest bestselling authors, and for the high action content in his novels (his work is often compared to that of Matthew Reilly, to the CHERUB written by Robert Muchamore and to the Alex Rider series by Anthony Horowitz.)

Jack Heath's second book, Remote Control was shortlisted for the 2007 Aurealis Award for Best Science-Fiction Novel, and he is the 2009 ACT Young Australian of the Year.
