Robert William Shields (May 17, 1918 – October 15, 2007) was an American minister and high school English teacher best known for writing a diary of 37.5 million words, which chronicled every five minutes of his life from 1972 until a stroke disabled him in 1997. Shields's diary, which filled 91 boxes, was longer than those kept by the journalist Edward Robb Ellis (21 million words) and the poet Arthur Crew Inman (17 million words), and 30 times longer than that of Samuel Pepys (1.25 million words).

  • Reverend Robert Shields (17. května 1918 – 15. října 2007) byl protestantský kněz a středoškolský učitel z Daytonu ve Washingtonu (USA). Pozoruhodný je především jako autor nejdelšího deníku na světě, který obsahuje asi 37,5 milionu slov a zaznamenává každých pět minut Shieldsova života od roku 1972 do roku 1997, kdy utrpěl mozkovou mrtvici. V roce 1999 daroval deník Washington State University pod podmínkou, že bude zveřejněn nebo i analyzován nejdříve padesát let po jeho smrti, několik úryvků však přesto bylo publikováno. (cs)
