Georgia Totto O'Keeffe (født 15. november 1887 i Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, død 6. marts 1986 i Santa Fe, New Mexico) var en amerikansk kunstner. O'Keeffe var en fremtrædende figur i amerikansk kunst fra 1920'erne til sin død. Hun er primært kendt for sine abstrakte malerier af blomster, sten, skaller, dyreknogler og landskaber.[3].
Georgia O'Keeffe, the undisputed doyenne of American painting and a leader, with her husband, Alfred Stieglitz, of a crucial phase in the development and dissemination of American modernism, died yesterday at St. Vincent Hospital in Santa Fe, N.M. She was 98 years old, and had lived in Santa Fe since 1984, when she moved from her longtime home and studio in Abiquiu, N.M. As an artist, as a reclusive but overwhelming personality and as a woman in what was for a long time a man's world, Georgia O'Keeffe was a key figure in the American 20th century. As much as anyone since Mary Cassatt, she raised the awareness of the American public to the fact that a woman could be the equal of any man in her chosen field.
