(* 16. února 1969 Nymburk)
Jaroslav Kmenta je český investigativní novinář, spisovatel a bývalý redaktor deníku Mladá fronta DNES. V roce 2005 založil vlastní nakladatelství JKM. Za dlouhodobou a investigativní žurnalistiku obdržel v roce 2010 Cenu Karla Havlíčka Borovského.
„Proč je dobré mít v redakci Jaroslava Kmentu? Protože ho nikdo nemá rád… Tedy přesněji, nemá ho ráda drtivá většina politiků, ať zprava nebo zleva. To může být důkazem, že svou práci investigativního reportéra dělal dobře a navíc nestranně.” - Robert Čásenský, bývalý šéfredaktor deníku MF DNES.
Do literatury vstoupil svými vnitropolitickými kauzami, ve kterých odhaluje zájmy podnikatelských i mafiánských kruhů a zabývá se problémy české korupce. Širokou veřejnost zaujal především trilogií s názvem Kmotr Mrázek (I–III), která vycházela od roku 2007. Knihy odhalují tajný život vládce českého podsvětí, Františka Mrázka, a jsou detailně zaměřeny na růst organizovaného zločinu ve státní správě a politice.
