Aharon Meskin (Hebrew: אהרן מסקין, 1898–1974) was an Israeli stage actor. Aharon Meskin was born in 1898 in Mogilev in the Russian Empire (now in Belarus). His parents were Moshe Meskin and Rashel Chasanov. Following the Russian Revolution, Maskin joined the Red Army, in which he became an officer and, in 1919, was responsible for the distribution of food to the residents of Moscow. During this period, he met members of recently founded Habima Theatre in Moscow and provided them with food.

He joined Habima Theatre in 1922, and appeared in its production of the play, The Dybbuk by S. Ansky.

In 1928, he immigrated to Mandate Palestine.

During his career on the Hebrew stage, Meskin played many leading roles, including Othello; the Golem; Shylock (in The Merchant of Venice); Willy Loman in Death of a Salesman; the black pastor Stephen Kumalo in Cry, The Beloved Country; Captain Queeg in The Caine Mutiny and many others.
