Jeff Coplon

Jeff Coplon (born 1951, in Schenectady, New York) is an American journalist and author.

These include works with Cher and Bill Parcells, along with three New York Times best-sellers: Return with Honor (with Captain Scott O'Grady, 1995); My Story (with Sarah, Duchess of York, 1996); and My Father's Daughter (with Tina Sinatra, 2000).

In a controversial 1988 article in The Village Voice, Coplon analyzed the scholarship surrounding the Ukrainian famine of the 1930s, and argued that allegations by "mainstream academics", including Sovietologist Robert Conquest, of genocide against the Soviet Union were historically dubious and politically motivated as part of a campaign by the Ukrainian nationalist community.

Tina Sinatra co-wrote, with Jeff Coplon, her book of memoirs, My Father's Daughter (Simon & Schuster 2000).
