Michel Vauzelle (born 15 August 1944 in Montélimar, Drôme)[1] is a member of the Socialist Party and was Minister of Justice in the Pierre Bérégovoy government in 1992–1993. He was the president of the regional council of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur from 1998 until 2015.

He was also the Deputy for the Bouches-du-Rhône's 16th constituency, from 2007 to 2017. In 2007 he defeated the UMP incumbent (who had previously defeated him in 2002) with 52.32% in the runoff.
