Sander Hicks (b. February 1, 1971) is the founder and former editor of Soft Skull Press as well as a playwright. Hicks wrote The Big Wedding: 9/11, The Whistleblowers, and the Cover-Up, and has been covered in CounterPunch. He has worked as a producer and interviewer for the television program INN World Report.

Hicks is a part of the 9/11 Truth Movement. He sought to be elected as United States Senator from New York in the 2006 election as a member of the Green Party, running against incumbent Hillary Clinton. However, he lost the Green Party nominating convention to Howie Hawkins. He then supported the Hawkins campaign and accepted a position as Hawkins' media director.

Hicks was lead singer for the art-punk group White Collar Crime. Today his new band is Rebel Moon.

Horns and Halos (2002), an award-winning documentary film directed by Suki Hawley and Michael Galinsky, is primarily about the difficult road the author (James Hatfield) and publisher (Sander Hicks at Soft Skull Press) travelled to bring "Fortunate Son", an unauthorized and controversial biography of George W. Bush to bookshelves again.

In 2004 Hicks launched his new publishing venture Vox Pop, Inc. (originally called Drench Kiss Media Corporation): a publishing company, bookstore and coffee-house located in Brooklyn, New York. He ran Vox Pop from 2004 until January, 2009.
