Robert Jean Pierre Vigneau (26 August 1933 – 18 August 2022) was a French expressionist poet. He published nine collections of poems, in major publishing houses (Gallimard, Seghers ...). His most famous poems are those he wrote for the youth (The Whale... two of his books were recommended by the Éducation nationale française).

The poem Jehan l'Advenu by Norge [fr], known for being sung by Georges Brassens, is dedicated to "Robert et Marie-Hélène Vigneau" in the Œuvres poétiques 1923-1973 by Norge, Séghers, 1978, p. 611.
