Jay Joseph Wiseman (born 1949) is an American BDSM author, educator, and expert legal witness. His most famous work is "SM 101: A Realistic Introduction", which has somewhere in the area of 100,000 copies in print. It is also one of the Society of Janus' "Suggested Readings" regarding BDSM.

In 1991, Wiseman started the Greenery Press publishing house with his partner Janet Hardy, author "Lady Green" of The Sexually Dominant Woman. The publishing house grew to the point of publishing several titles a year, and they hired two other employees.

After receiving royalties from the distribution of "SM 101: A Realistic Introduction", he took the resultant funds and put himself through a law degree at the New College of California School of Law. Later on, he became an adjunct professor at the same college. Although the college is now defunct, he is still listed through documentation as having taught "Advanced Legal Concepts" and "Legal Analysis".
