Amanda MacKinnon Palmer (born April 30, 1976) is an American singer, songwriter, musician, and performance artist who was the lead vocalist, pianist, and lyricist of the duo the Dresden Dolls and the ex-wife of author Neil Gaiman. She performs as a solo artist and was also a member of the duo Evelyn Evelyn and the lead singer and songwriter of Amanda Palmer and the Grand Theft Orchestra. She has gained a cult fanbase and was one of the first musical artists to popularize the use of crowdfunding websites.

One accuser sued Palmer for negligence in human trafficking and "procuring and presenting the Plaintiff to Gaiman for such abuse." Palmer has denied these allegations.
