A liquid crystal polymer represented by the following formula (I):
wherein D represents a n-valence connecting group; n represents an integer of 3 to 20; L
1
represents a single bond or a bivalent connecting group; P represents a polymer having at least one ester bond and/or amide bond and having a weight-average molecular weight of 1,000 or more; m represents an integer that satisfies the relation of n≧m; R represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent; when a plurality of L
1
, a plurality of P, or a plurality of R are present in a molecule, they may be the same or different from each other; and P and P, or P and R may bond together.
