Angela Kennedy (born February 28 in Nambour, Queensland) was an Australian butterfly swimmer of the 1990s, who won a silver medal in the 4x100m medley relay at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia.
She combined with Helen Denman, Sarah Ryan and Nicole Stevenson to qualify Australia for the final, before Susie O'Neill, Samantha Riley, Stevenson and Ryan trailed the United States home. In her only individual event, the 100m butterfly, Kennedy was eliminated in the heats.
She attempted to qualify for the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, but finished eighth in the 100m butterfly at the Australian Championships. Petria Thomas and Susie O'Neill were selected. Her attempt in the 200m individual medley was even less successful, failing to reach the final.
