'''Sir Edmund Percival Hillary''' ([[20. juli]] [[1919]] - [[11. januar]] [[2008]]) var ein nýsælendskur fjallaklintrari, rannsóknarmaður og góðgerðarfólk. [[29. mai]] [[1953]] gjørdist Edmund saman við [[Tenzing Norgay]] fyrstu fjallamenn at røkka toppin av [[Mount Everest]]. Edmund varð nevndur ein av 100 mest týðandi persónum í [[20. øld]] av amerikanska tíðarritinum ''Time''.
Edmund gjørdist áhugaður í fjallaklintring tá hann gekk í framhaldsskúla. Fyrsta avbjóðandi fjallið, ið hann klatraði var 1.933 metra høga Mount Olliver í [[Nýsæland|Nýsælandi]]. Sum partur av ''Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic'' ferðalagnum náddi hann [[Antarktis|Suðurpólin]] til fóts í [[1958]]. Seinni náddi hann eisini á [[Norðpólurin|Norðurpólin]], og gjørdist tí fyrsti maður í heiminum, ið hevði verið á báðum pólunum og heimsins hægsta fjalli.
Eftir at Edmund hevði verið á Everest, stovnaði hann pengagrunnin Himalayan Trust, ið stuðlaði Sherpa fólkinum í [[Nepal]]. Hetta var eitt hjartamál, ið lá honum sera nær, og arbeiddi hann við tí restina av lívi sínum. Í gjøgnum pengagrunnin bygdi Edmund fleiri skúlar og sjúkrahús í [[Nepal]].
Edmund var hermaður undir seinna heimsbardaga, har hann var stýrimaður í the Royal New Zealand Air Force.
