Nancy P. Dorn (b. 1958) was the United States Assistant Secretary of the Army (Civil Works) from 1991 to 1993.

Nancy P. Dorn was born on September 18, 1958 in Lubbock, Texas. She attended Baylor University, graduating in 1981.

After college, Dorn got a job on the associate staff of the United States House Committee on Appropriations as a legislative assistant. From 1983 to 1986, she was the associate staff designee on the staff for Rep. Tom Loeffler (R-Tex. 21). Loeffler made Dorn his chief of staff in 1986, and she then went on to serve as Loeffler's chief campaign spokesperson during the 1986 Texas gubernatorial election, which Loeffler ultimately lost to Bill Clements.

Later in 1986, Dorn joined the United States Department of State as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Legislative Affairs. She moved to the White House in 1988, becoming Special Assistant to the President for Legislative Affairs. In 1990, she moved to the United States Department of Defense as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Inter-American Affairs.

On April 24, 1991, President of the United States George H. W. Bush announced his intention to nominate Dorn as Assistant Secretary of the Army (Civil Works); after Senate confirmation, she subsequently held this office from July 1991 until January 1993. During her time as Assistant Secretary, the United States Army Corps of Engineers took a wider role in environmental cleanup projects, including cleanup of nuclear production sites operated by the Department of Defense and the United States Department of Energy, and the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Superfund sites.
