Darrell Robes Kipp (Blackfeet, 23 October 1944 - 21 November 2013) was a Native American educator, documentary filmmaker, and historian.

[1] Kipp was an enrolled member of the Blackfeet Nation in Montana and was instrumental in teaching and preserving the Blackfoot language as the director of the Piegan Institute.

After working as a technical writer, in the early 1980s, Kipp returned to the Blackfeet reservation to study Piegan, the Blackfoot language.

Learning that its practice had declined and many native speakers were elders, he and a small group of friends began to work on language revitalization.

[4][6] In 2004 he joined composer Robert Kapilow to write the libretto for a large-scale choral and orchestra work to mark the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial.
