Vyasa
Vyasdeva, son of rishi Parasar was the creator of Great Epic "Mahabharata" & "Vedas"
As he wote Vedas that's why He was known as VedaVyas also. Vyas credited Brahma as the creator of Vedas in Mahabharata. Thus it can be said the Brahma was the creator of Vedas and Vyas was the narrator of Vedas.
According to tradition, Vyasa is the compiler of theVedas, who arranged the four kinds of mantras into four Samhitas (Collections). There are four Vedas: the Rigveda, the Yajurveda, the Samaveda and the Atharvaveda.
