Anne Dudley (born 1956-05-07) is an orchestral composer and pop musician and was the BBC Concert Orchestra's Composer in Association between January 2002 and January 2005. She has worked in both the classical and pop genres.

Trained as a classical performer, Dudley then moved to the competitive commercial field as a session musician, where her professional relationship with Trevor Horn began and also her work with groups such as ABC and Frankie Goes to Hollywood. She was a founding member of The Art Of Noise, whose pioneering attitude towards sampling has extended to music production of today.

Dudley's music for film includes The Crying Game and Buster, and in 1998 she won the "Best Original Score" Oscar for The Full Monty (now the highest grossing film in the UK of all time). Her TV music includes scores for Kavanagh Q.C., Jeeves and Wooster and The Perfect Blue. She has also worked as a session musician for many clients.
