Jayson Greene (born ) is an American author, music critic and editor. He has served as a senior editor of online music magazine ''Pitchfork'' and is the author of ''Once More We Saw Stars'', a memoir about the death of his two-year-old daughter, in 2015. The book, released May 14, 2019, received a starred review from ''Publishers Weekly'' and was named to lists of most-anticipated books of 2019 by ''Entertainment Weekly'', the ''Observer'', ''New York'' magazine's ''Vulture'', ''Elle'', ''Oprah Magazine'' and ''Bustle''.

Reviewing ''Once More We Saw Stars'' for ''The New York Times'', Alex Witchel praised the book as "a revelation of lightness and agility. That [Greene] managed to keep his facility for language during a period where it often disappears is a miracle. He has created a narrative of grief and acceptance that is compulsively readable and never self-indulgent." ''Rolling Stone'' gave it four of five stars, noting that the story which "might be too bleak to face" instead is "an intensely moving, life-affirming story about a young couple moving through the darkest depths of grief together, making it up as they go along."
