Anne Catherine Dyer (born February 1957) is a British Anglican bishop, previously an academic administrator.

In 2018, she became Bishop of Aberdeen and Orkney in the Scottish Episcopal Church. Subject to a report process, with a recommendation that she step aside permanently, then mediation, she was suspended from office on 10 August 2022 after allegations of misconduct were made against her. She was reinstated as Bishop of Aberdeen and Orkney 8 October 2024 after Clergy Disciplinary Tribunal was dismissed and her suspension ended.[1]

Previously, from 2005 to 2011, she was the Warden of Cranmer Hall, Durham, a theological college of the Church of England. Thereafter, she was Rector of Holy Trinity Church, Haddington, East Lothian in the Diocese of Edinburgh (in the Scottish Episcopal Church) between 2011 and 2018.
