Elma Penelope Meagher (1935 – 5 June 1995[2]), better known as Penny Meagher, was an Australian painter.

Penny Meagher was born in Sydney, and started drawing from an early age.[3] She was educated at Ascham School, Edgecliff and Frensham School, Mittagong. She studied economics at the University of Sydney.[3] In 1952, she went on a trip to London, where she enrolled at the Chelsea School of Art. From 1960 to 1962, she studied at the East Sydney Technical College, and later did a graduate course in painting at the University of New South Wales.

In the late 1960s, Penny Meagher became a director of the Macquarie Galleries in Sydney.[3] Her work has been exhibited only rarely and at occasional group exhibitions, this included the important STILL LIFES at David Jones Gallery in 1984.
