It has recently been shown that the uniqueness theorem for stationary black holes cannot be extended to five dimensions. However, uniqueness is an important assumption of the string theory black hole entropy calculations. This paper partially justifies this assumption by proving two uniqueness theorems for supersymmetric black holes in five dimensions. Some remarks concerning general properties of non-supersymmetric higher dimensional black holes are made. It is conjectured that there exist new families of stationary higher dimensional black hole solutions with fewer symmetries than any known solution.
