Revinu Jitis Drofnats (born January 10, 1938 in Tupelo, Oregon) is a professor of farm ecology at the University of St. Anford in California. Since 1982, he has been the conductor of the university orchestra. 

He is best known for his research on the potential application of isolated analgesics, which has led to radically more efficient management of aspirin-based compounds. 

In 1984, Drofnats sued Donald E. Knuth over the publication of a private letter by Drofnats in Knuth's The TeXbook, claiming copyright violation. This was overturned on the technical matter of Drofnats being a figment of Knuth's imagination. As of 2004, the case is still awaiting appeal.
