Nina Simone (Tryon, 21 de fevereiro de 1933 — Carry-le-Rouet, 21 de abril de 2003), nascida Eunice Kathleen Waymon, foi uma grande pianista, cantora e compositora americana. O nome artístico foi adotado aos 20 anos, para que pudesse cantar Blues, a "música do diabo", nos cabarés de Nova Iorque, Filadélfia e Atlantic City, escondida de seus pais, que eram pastores metodistas. "Nina" veio do Espanhol (Niña: menina), e "Simone" foi uma homenagem à grande atriz do cinema Francês Simone Signoret, sua preferida.
Nina Simone também se destacou e foi perseguida por ser negra e por abraçar publicamente todo tipo de combate ao racismo. Seu envolvimento era tal, que chegou inclusive a cantar no enterro do pacifista Martin Luther King. Casada com um policial nova-iorquino, Nina também sofreu com a violência do marido, que a espancava.
Em um breve contato com sua obra, aqueles que não conhecem percebem logo a diversidade de estilos pelos quais Nina Simone se aventurou, desde o gospel, passando pelo soul, blues, folk e jazz. Foi uma das primeiras artistas negras a ingressar na renomada Julliard School of Music, em Nova Iorque. Sua canção “Mississipi Goddamn” tornou-se um hino ativista da causa negra, e fala sobre o assassinato de quatro crianças negras numa igreja de Birmingham em 1963.
Morreu enquanto dormia em Carry-le-Rouet em 2003.
