Peggy Moran (October 23, 1918 – October 24, 2002) was an American film actress who appeared in films between 1938 and 1943.

Born Mary Jeanette Moran in Clinton, Iowa, Moran starred in a number of B movies like The Mummy's Hand (1940), Slightly Tempted (1940), Treat 'Em Rough (1942) with Eddie Albert and William Frawley, and King of the Cowboys (1943) with Roy Rogers and Smiley Burnette, and played smaller parts in A pictures, such as the "first cigarette girl" in Ninotchka (1939), which starred Greta Garbo. After marrying director Henry Koster in 1942, Moran was featured in every picture her husband directed.

With Koster, Moran had two sons. After Koster retired in 1966, the couple traveled extensively until Koster's death in 1988. On October 24, 2002, only one day after her 84th birthday, Moran died of complications from injuries she suffered after a car accident on August 26, 2002. She was cremated (Ashes scattered over sea).
