James Paul Roslof (November 21, 1946 – March 19, 2011)[2] was an American artist who produced cover art and interior illustrations of fantasy role-playing games published by TSR, Inc. during the "golden age" of Dungeons & Dragons. As Art Director at TSR in the early 1980s, he was also responsible for hiring many of the young artists who would go on to careers in the fantasy role-playing industry.

Roslof created the cover for Keep on the Borderlands, of which more than one million copies were sold.
