Josef Skružný (March 15, 1871 in Prague – May 12, 1948) was a Czech writer and journalist.
Skružný was taught stone-cutter but became a journalist for Humoristické listy, a political satire magazine, where he contributed with short stories and cartoon. During the 1910s was friend with other satirists, namely Josef Lada and Jaroslav Hašek. In the First Republic of Czechoslovakia Skružný was a popular author of dramatic and satiric novels, many of which were filmed. He named his villa in Zbraslav (Prague) "Venoušek a Stázička", after one of his most successful works. Elmar Klos, nephew of Skružný, cooperated on several movie scripts. Josef Skružný was a fierce anticommunist and supported and cooperated with Germans during the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia. One of his sons, Roman Skružný (1932–2004), became a known neo-nazi activist.
