Elle Nash is a British-American editor and author based in Glasgow, Scotland. She is best known for her debut novella Animals Eat Each Other. Nash has stressed the importance of focusing her work on working-class characters and narratives and has criticized mainstream literature for ignoring those narratives and perpetuating the false idea of class mobility. Her writing generally revolves around women, psychosexual transgressive themes, eating disorders, and other self-destructive behavior.

She lived in Denver, Colorado during the years 2015 and 2016. Nash had a daughter with her husband in 2016. She formerly lived in northwest Arkansas until 2019 at the latest. This duration of time helped inspire her novel Deliver Me. Nash was born in England but moved to the United States at a young age. She first visited Glasgow during her 2018 tour for Animals Eat Each Other.
