Anna Katharine Green (11. november 1846 – 11. aprill 1935) oli ameerika luuletaja ja novellist. Ta oli üks esimesi kriminaalromaanide autoreid Ameerikas. Tema teoste eristavateks joonteks oli hästi läbi mõeldud süžee ja juriidiliselt korrektne taust.[1] Greeni on nimetatud „kriminaalromaani emaks“.[2]

[Green] is frequently, inaccurately, described as the mother of the detective novel by virtue of having written The Leavenworth Case, which is said to be the first mystery written by an American woman. But the honor rightfully belongs to Seeley Regester [1831-1885], with her 1866 novel The Dead Letter.
