Hank Ballard (18 de noviembre de 1927 - 2 de marzo de 2003) fue el fundador y líder de la banda estadounidense de soul y R&B Hank Ballard and the Midnighters. Nacido en Detroit, se trasladó de niño a Bessemer (Alabama), regresó a Detroit a los 15 años, trabajó para Ford y cantó en el coro de una iglesia, donde conoció a sus futuros compañeros de banda. El grupo, originalmente The Royals, fue descubierto por Johnny Otis en 1952 y fichó por Federal Records; Hank Ballard se unió en 1953, cambiando el sonido hacia un R&B más duro. Su primer sencillo, "Get It", entró en el top 10 del R&B estadounidense, seguido del controvertido éxito "Work with Me Annie", que alcanzó el top 20 del R&B y fue incluido en las "500 canciones que dieron forma al Rock & Roll" del Salón de la Fama del Rock and Roll. Hank Ballard compuso "The Twist" en 1958, y la grabación de Chubby Checker de 1960 alcanzó dos veces el primer puesto del Billboard Hot 100, lo que atrajo la atención nacional hacia Hank Ballard and the Midnighters. Los sencillos de la banda de principios de los 60, como "Finger Poppin' Time" y "Let's Go, Let's Go, Let's Go", mantuvieron su presencia en las listas. Tras un periodo de inactividad, Hank Ballard and the Midnighters se reformaron brevemente en la década de 1980, pero no recuperaron el éxito. Hank Ballard falleció en Los Ángeles en 2003 a la edad de 75 años, dejando un legado como figura clave del soul y el R&B primitivos.
