Emma Bunting (born September 2, 1881) was an American stage actress during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. She was known as being a petite but versatile actress, taking on roles of children and adults alike in stage plays across the country. Initially taking on mostly minor rolls, she started to become notable sometime around 1905 and at one time was compared with Minnie Maddern Fiske. She would generally receive a better reception from southern audiences, being described by one newspaper as "the most unassuming little actress that has stopped in Topeka for many years."

She was married to Charles Leyburne, then considered a well known actor, until his death in 1903.
