No, Paul is not responsible for writing the Acts of the Apostles. It was written by Luke, the writer of the Gospel of Luke. In Acts 1:1, Luke refers to the "first book" he had written. He was a physician who was a companion of Paul beginning probably on Paul's second missionary journey. Luke uses the third person "they" in his written history until Acts 16:10 where he begins to use the first person "us," indicating that at some recent point, he had joined Paul on his journey.
