Dan Fogelman is an American filmmaker, whose screenplays include the movies Cars (2006), Bolt (2008), Tangled (2010) and Crazy, Stupid, Love (2011).

Fogelman grew up in what he has called an "endearingly dysfunctional" Jewish family in River Vale, New Jersey. He attended Pascack Valley High School in nearby Hillsdale. He attended the University of Pennsylvania and graduated in 1997. He and his mother, Joyce, took a road trip from New Jersey to Las Vegas that became the basis for his 2012 film comedy The Guilt Trip, starring Barbra Streisand and Seth Rogen as a mother and son on a cross-country road trip. His father, named Marty, became the namesake of the father in the 2012 television sitcom The Neighbors created by Fogelman, who has a sister who inspired the family daughter in this series.

He is married to Caitlin Thompson, who stars as Madison on his family drama This Is Us. They have a son, born in 2020.

Also uncredited wrote an earlier draft for Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023).
