Tinne Hoff Kjeldsen é uma historiadora da matemática dinamarquesa, professora da Universidade de Roskilde e da Universidade de Copenhague.

Obteve um doutorado em 1999 na Universidade de Roskilde, orientada por Anders Hede Madsen, com a tese En kontekstualiseret matematikhistorisk analyse af ikke-lineær programmering: udviklingshistorie og multipel opdagelse.

Em 2012 foi eleita Fellow da American Mathematical Society.

Foi palestrante convidada do Congresso Internacional de Matemáticos em Hyderabad (2010: History of convexity and mathematical programming: connections and relationships in two episodes of research in pure and applied mathematics of the 20th century).
