Samuel Benjamin (Sam) Harris [ˈsæmjuːəl ˈbɛndʒəmɪn sæm ˈhærɪs] (Los Angeles, 9. aprila 1967.), američki neuroznanstvenik, filozof i pisac.
Diplomirao je filozofiju na Stanfordu, gde je izučavao religijsku tradiciju Istoka i Zapada. Odbranio je doktorsku tezu iz oblasti neuronauke u kojoj proučava neurobiološku osnovu verovanja pomoću MRI (magnetna rezonanca) snimaka mozga.
Haris je nastupao u brojnim televizijskim i radio emisijama govoreći o sukobu nauke i religije i o opasnosti koju religijski dogmatizam predstavlja za moderna društva.
Sem Haris je autor knjige Kraj vere: religija, teror i budućnost razuma, jedne od najprodavanijih knjiga prema časopisu New York Times, za koju je 2005. dobio nagradu PEN/Martha Albrand u kategoriji First Nonfiction. Njegova druga knjiga je Pismo hrišćanskoj naciji, a 2010. izdao je i svoju treću knjigu Moralni pejzaž: Kako nauka određuje ljudske vrednosti.
