Aaron Benjamin Sorkin (lahir 9 Juni 1961) adalah seorang penulis skenario, dramawan, dan pembuat film Amerika.

Sorkin telah meraih banyak penghargaan termasuk Academy Award, BAFTA Award, lima Primetime Emmy Award, tiga Golden Globe, dan dua WGA Award, selain nominasi Laurence Olivier Award.
Lahir di Kota New York, Sorkin mengembangkan minatnya dalam menulis sejak usia dini.

Dia juga dikenal karena karyanya di Broadway termasuk drama-drama A Few Good Men (1989), The Farnsworth Invention (2007), To Kill a Mockingbird (2018), dan pementasan ulang musikal Lerner dan Loewe Camelot (2023).
Dia menulis skenario film untuk A Few Good Men (1992), The American President (1995), dan beberapa biopik termasuk Charlie Wilson's War (2007), Moneyball (2011), dan Steve Jobs (2015). Atas penulisan The Social Network (2010), dia memenangkan Academy Award untuk Skenario Adaptasi Terbaik.
