Thomas Eugene Robbins (born July 22, 1932)[1] is an American novelist. His most notable works are "seriocomedies" (also known as "comedy drama").[2] Tom Robbins has lived in La Conner, Washington since 1970, where he has written nine books.[3] His 1976 novel Even Cowgirls Get the Blues was adapted into the 1993 film version by Gus Van Sant.[4] His latest work, published in 2014, is Tibetan Peach Pie, which is a self-declared "un-memoir".

The discrepancy between Robbins' year of birth appearing in the Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data results from previous inaccurate reporting and the LoC rule prohibiting correction of CIP data. Robbins claims he was born in 1932 (see Tibetan Peach Pie: A True Account of an Imaginative Life, 2014 or Conversations With Tom Robbins, 2011). See Thomas Robbins in the 1940 US census living in Blowing Rock, North Carolina.
