James V. "Jim" Hart is a screenwriter and author.

He has written the 2005 children's novel Capt. Hook: The Adventures of a Notorious Youth (ISBN 0060002204), a prequel depicting J. M. Barrie's villain Captain Hook, the nemesis of Peter Pan, when Hook was a youngster. Earlier, Hart wrote the screenplay to the Steven Spielberg feature film Hook which functioned as a sequel to Barrie's original story.
