Violet Oakley (June 10, 1874 – February 25, 1961) was an American artist. She was the first American girl to get a public mural commission. During the first quarter of the twentieth century, she was renowned as a pathbreaker in mural decoration, a pitch that had been exclusively skillful by men. Oakley excelled at murals and stained glass designs that addressed themes from chronicles and literature in Renaissance-revival styles.
