Anne Bernays (born September 14, 1930, in New York City, United States) is an American novelist, editor, and teacher.

Bernays attended the Brearley School on New York City's Upper East Side, graduating in 1948. A graduate of Barnard College, she was managing editor of discovery, a literary magazine, before moving from New York City to Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1959 when she began her career as a novelist.

Bernays has been published widely in national magazines and journals and is a long-time teacher of writing at Boston University, Boston College, Holy Cross, Harvard Extension, Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard, and MFA Program at Lesley University.

She is a founder of PEN/New England and a member of the Writer's Union. She serves as chairman of the board of Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown and co-president of Truro Center for the Arts at Castle Hill.

Her father, Edward L. Bernays, was a nephew of Sigmund Freud and is known as "the father of Public Relations." Bernays appeared in the Adam Curtis series The Century of the Self (2002) where she was critical of her father's shaky commitment to democracy and skill at manipulation. Her mother, Doris E. Fleischman, was a writer and feminist. She was married to the biographer and editor Justin Kaplan until his death in 2014; they lived in Cambridge, and Truro, Massachusetts, and had three daughters and six grandchildren.
