Nathan Greno is an American former screenwriter, voice actor, animator, and director at Walt Disney Animation Studios. He served as a story artist for films, such as Brother BearChicken Little, and Bolt and directed the 2010 animated feature film Tangled, alongside Byron Howard. In November 2018, Greno left Disney to work at Skydance Media.

Greno was born in Kenosha, WI on the southwestern shores of Lake Michigan. As a child, he developed a love for drawing, which quickly evolved into a passion for visual storytelling. Becoming a fan of Disney, he made sure to see all the classics, and, after graduating from Columbus College of Art and Design, he submitted a portfolio to the company in 1996. He began his career as a clean-up animation artist on Mulan before becoming a full-time storyboard artist.

Aside from working behind the scenes, Greno provided voices for minor characters on films he worked on.
