Chris Andrews (born 1962 in Newcastle, NSW) is an Australian translator and writer.
Andrews studied and then taught at the University of Melbourne before moving to the University of Western Sydney in 2009. In 2003 he published the first translation into English of the work of Roberto Bolaño. He was awarded the Valle-Inclán Prize in 2005 for his translation of Distant Star. In 2014 he published a monograph on Bolaño. Andrews has also translated other Spanish-language literature, such as works by César Aira. Andrews has been keen to publish translations from French but has been unable to convince publishers to commission translations for work he likes.
Andrews has also published original poetry; he won the 2003 Wesley Michel Wright Prize and his second collection of poems, Lime Green Chair, won the 2011 Anthony Hecht Poetry Prize. He was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of the Humanities in 2015.
