Madeline Rogers (born January 21, 1927, died April 2, 2024) was a fan artist, editor, and author whose works appeared in a number of Star Trek TOS and Star Wars fanzines.

As an artist, her primary media were ink, pencil, and watercolor.

She was involved in science fiction fandom in San Antonio, Texas during the 1960s through the 1990s.
