Anne Hunter (née Home) (1742–1821) was a saloniere and poet in Georgian London.
She is mostly remembered now for writing the texts to at least nine of Joseph Haydn's 14 songs in English.
She entertained the leading Bluestockings at their house. She was the wife of surgeon John Hunter and his anatomical collections in their marital home eventually formed the basis for the Hunterian Museum.
