Kristin C. Gore (born June 5, 1977) is an American author and television writer. She is the daughter of former Vice President Al Gore.

Gore attended the National Cathedral School in Washington, D.C., and she is a 1999 graduate of Harvard University, where she was the lone female writer for the Harvard Lampoon. She has worked as a writer and story editor for the animated series Futurama (on which her father guest starred twice) and a writer for Charlie Lawrence and Saturday Night Live, including several skits for the episode her father hosted in 2002. For her work on SNL, she was nominated for an Emmy Award.

In 2004, she published a comic novel about love and congressional politics in Washington, D.C., Sammy's Hill (ISBN 1-4013-5219-7). Columbia Pictures purchased the film rights in September 2004, with Gore to write the screenplay. A sequel novel is also in the works, according to Variety magazine.
