Jaroslav Rudis (born June 8, 1972 in Turnov) is a Czech writer, journalist and musician.

Rudis became known after publishing his first novel Nebe pod Berlinem ("The Sky under Berlin") in 2002, the tale of a Czech teacher who chooses to leave his job and to start a new life in Berlin, where he plays music in the underground, which – along with the ghosts of suicide jumpers – gains almost mystical importance to him, and joins an indie rock group (which is a semi-autobiographical motive). It was one of the most successful Czech books of recent years. For this novel he received Jiri Orten Award.

His collaboration with draughtsman Jaromir 99 led to the publication of three closely connected graphic novels taking place among railway employees, Bily potok ("White Brook", 2003), Hlavni nadrazi ("Central Station", 2004) and Zlate hory ("Golden Hills"). The trilogy has been adapted into an animated feature film, Alois Nebel, which was released in 2011.
