Joyce Carol Oatesová (* 16. června 1938 Lockport (Niagara County, stát New York) je americká spisovatelka, básnířka a dramatička.
Narodila se jako nejstarší ze tří dětí v rodině Američana Frederica Jamese Oatse a Caroliny (rozené Bushové, maďarského původu), ženy v domácnosti. Vyrůstala na farmě svých rodičů za městem, na níž celá rodina fyzicky pracovala. Roku 1960 absolvovala bakalářské studium literatury na prestižní soukromé Syracuse University v New Yorku a v roce 1961 získala titul magistra na Wisconsinské univerzitě v Madisonu. Literární pokusy psala na stroji od 14 let a publikovala ve školním časopise. Po celou dobu vysokoškolských studií přispívala kratšími literárními útvary do různých periodik , většinou pod pseudonymem. Po ukončení studia se brzy stala spisovatelkou na volné noze.
Za novelu Them získala roku 1969 National Book Award, na niž byla k tomu ještě osmkrát nominována. Třikrát byla rovněž nominována na Pulitzerovu cenu, nikdy ji však nezískala. Napsala přes 80 knih, některé navíc pod pseudonymy Rosamond Smith a Lauren Kelly. Zfilmovány byly dvě její knihy: Foxfire (roku 1996) [1] a životopis Marilyn Monroeové Blonde (roku 2022).[2]
