Dr Hollis Scarborough is an American psychologist and literacy expert who is a senior scientist at Haskins Laboratories in New Haven, Connecticut. She has been a leading researcher in the area of reading acquisition since 1981, and has been involved with efforts to improve US national policy on the teaching of reading.[1]

Scarborough was a member of the Committee on the Prevention of Reading Difficulties in Young Children, United States National Research Council, National Academy of Sciences (1996–1998).[1] She sat on the board of directors of the Society for the Scientific Study of Reading from 1999 until 2007. She was associate editor of the journal Annals of Dyslexia from 1994 until 2002 and continues to be on the council of advisors to the International Dyslexia Association (IDA).[2] In 2009, Scarborough shared the IDA's Samuel Torrey Orton award with Susan Brady.[3] The Orton Award is the association's highest honor.
