Gabriel Imomotimi Gbaingbain Okara is a Nigerian writer. He was born in Bomoundi in Bayelsa State, Nigeria, in April 1921. He is a poet and novelist; his novel The Voice was published by Heinemann in the African Writers Series. The Voice is one of the most memorable works of fiction written by an African writer, with the protagonist, Okolo, being hunted (by society) and haunted (by his own ideals).

Okara has written many poems, the most famous of which is "Piano and Drums."

Okara may be described as highly original and uninfluenced by other poets. In 1979 he was awarded the Commonwealth Poetry Prize. He has been extremely successful in capturing the moods, sights and sounds of Africa. His poems show great sensitivity, perceptive judgements and a tremendous energy. Okara also shows a concern regarding what happens when the ancient culture of Africa is faced with modern western culture, for example in his poem, 'Once Upon a Time'.
