Leonora Carrington OBE (6. april 1917 – 25. maj 2011) je bila meksička nadrealistička slikarica i književnica rodom iz Britanije. Najveći dio života je provela u Ciudad Mexicu. Odrasla je u porodici tekstilnog magnata, a na njen opus je značajno uticao Max Ernst, s kojim je imala ljubavnu vezu i živjela u Parizu. Tokom drugog svjetskog rata se sklonila u neutralnu Španiju, ali je tamo neko vrijeme bila zatvorena u psihijatrijskoj bolnici. Odatle je uspjela pobjeći i pronašla utočište u Meksiku gdje je provela ostatak života. Poznata je kao jedna od posljednih "originalnih" nadrealista.
