Dame Antonia Susan Byatt, Lady Byatt, DBE (rođena kao Antonia Susan Drabble 24. 8. 1936. u Sheffieldu) je britanska postmodernistička spisateljica romana i pjesnikinja. Najčešće se navodi kao A. S. Byatt. Studirala je na Koledžu Somerville pri Univerzitetu u Oxfordu.
Byatt je najpoznatija po romanima Possession i Angels and Insects, koji su kasnije adaptirani u igrane filmove.
Njena mlađa sestra Margaret Drabble je također uspješna spisateljica, ali se među sestrama razvilo snažno suparništvo, pa i otvoreno neprijateljstvo koje dan-danas traje.
Byatt je na sebe navukla bijes fanova Harryja Pottera nakon što je u kolumni za New York Times za te knjige rekla kako su napisane za "ljude čija je imaginacija ograničena na televizijske crtiće i napuhani (iako ne prijeteći) svijet sapunica, reality televizije i zvjezdanih tračeva."
