'Ozaki Kōyō' (尾崎 紅葉 January 10, 1868 - October 30, 1903) was a Japanese author.
Ozaki was the only son of Kokusai, a well-known netsuke carver in the Meiji period. He was educated at Tokyo Prefecture Middle School, and later Tokyo Imperial University. At university, he started publishing a literary magazine called 'Kenyusha' (Friend of the ink stone) in 1885 with his friends. Yamada Bimyo and Kawakami Bizan also had material published in the magazine.
Ozaki's most renowned works were ''Konjiki Yasha'' (The Usurer) and ''Tajo Takon''. His works mostly appeared in the Yomiuri Shimbun, the most popular newspaper in Japan. His pupil Izumi Kyoka continued to write in Ozaki's style.
