Kenny Barron (born June 9, 1943 in Philadelphia), is a United States jazz pianist. He is the younger brother of tenor saxophonist Bill Barron, and known for his lyrical, adaptive style. His talent first came to wider recognition when he took the piano chair in the 1960s Dizzy Gillespie quartet. He has gone on to work with hundreds of well-known musicians including Michael Brecker, Yusef Lateef, James Moody, Joe Henderson, Freddie Hubbard, Buddy Rich, Ron Carter, Chet Baker, Benny Carter, Stan Getz, Regina Carter and Ornette Coleman. He also co-led the group Sphere and has led his own groups for performances and recordings.

Between 1987 and 1991, Barron recorded several albums with Stan Getz, most notably Bossas & Ballads - The Lost Sessions, Serenity, Anniversary and People Time, a 2CD set.

He has been nominated nine times for Grammy Awards and for the American Jazz Hall of Fame.

For over 25 years, Barron taught piano and keyboard harmony at Rutgers University in New Jersey.
