Herbert Kaufmann (24 August 1920 – 27 November 1976) was a German Ethnologist, journalist, photographer and writer. He is known for his body of work concerning Africa, particularly – in the English-speaking world – his translated novel, Red Moon and High Summer (translated 2006), an adventure story set among the Tuaregs. The original German edition, Roter Mond und Heiße Zeit (1957), won the 1958 Deutscher Jugendliteraturpreis.
