Mick Ronson (May 26, 1946 - April 30, 1993), born in Hull, Yorkshire, was a lead guitarist who rose to fame with David Bowie on the Ziggy Stardust album.

Ronson later released three solo albums and was a long time collaborator with Ian Hunter. Besides Bowie and Hunter, he worked as a musician, writer and producer with many other acts including Elton John, Bob Dylan, and John Cougar Mellencamp. He died of liver cancer.

Ronson was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, but had grown disenchanted with the faith before his death.
