Kevin Sullivan (born November 5, 1959) is an American journalist and author who is an associate editor at The Washington Post. Sullivan was a Post foreign correspondent for 14 years, working with his wife, Mary Jordan, as the newspaper's co-bureau chiefs in Tokyo, Mexico City and London. Sullivan is known for parachuting into faraway places, from Congo to Burma to Baghdad. He went to Afghanistan after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and to Saudi Arabia when King Abdullah died, and again after Jamal Khashoggi was murdered. He has also worked as the Post's chief foreign correspondent, deputy foreign editor, and Sunday and Features Editor.

Sullivan and Jordan wrote three books together. Trump on Trial chronicled the Trump impeachment, and Hope: A Memoir of Survival in Cleveland was written with kidnapping survivors with Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus. Sullivan and Jordan have also been featured authors at the Library of Congress National Book Festival in Washington, D.C.
