Angela Morley (born Walter "Wally" Stott, 10 March 1924–14 January 2009) was an English composer and conductor.
She attributed her entry into composing and arranging largely to the influence and encouragement of the Canadian light music composer Robert Farnon. In 1972, Morley underwent sex reassignment surgery. Later in life, she lived in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Morley won two Emmy Awards for her work in music arrangement. These were in the category of Outstanding Achievement in Music Direction, in 1988 and 1990, both for television specials starring Julie Andrews. Morley received Emmy nominations for composing music for television series such as Dynasty and Dallas. She was twice nominated for an Academy Award in the category of Best Music, Original Song Score/Adaptation: for The Little Prince (1974), a nomination shared with Alan Jay Lerner, Frederick Loewe, and Douglas Gamley; and for The Slipper and the Rose, which Morley shared with Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman. She was the first openly transgender person to be nominated for an Academy Award.

Others are alarmed and fear the return to a narrow-hearted world of bigots ...Angela Morley (formerly Wally Stott who wrote the Hancock theme) transitioned and carried on in music; Jan Morris had a long literary career and general respect ... .
Both Anderson and Butler had immersed themselves in Scott Walker’s largely Wally Stott-orchestrated Scott 1 – 4, records which moved further and further away from the top of the hit parade...
“Jackie” was a no-go ...Ford produced and played drums. Wally Stott’s string arrangement for Walker’s “We Came Through”, which is taken at a breakneck gallop, stuck with them for the key track, the puzzlingly titled “The Age of the Understatement”. .
