Marcus Roberts (born September 7, 1963 in Jacksonville, Florida) is an American jazz pianist who has achieved fame as a gifted player committed to celebrating classic standards and jazz traditions.
Blind since his youth, Roberts began playing piano at an early age and then studied the instrument while attending Florida State University.

He became a close friend and disciple of Marsalis, and collaborated with him on many projects during the ensuing years.
