Zoe Wanamaker (born May 13 1949) is an American actress.

She is the daughter of American film director Sam Wanamaker who led the project to rebuild the Globe Theatre in London.

She is probably best-known by a world-wide audience for her role as Madame Hooch in the film Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and presumbably further Harry Potter films. She was one of the twins in Gormenghast, a BBC faantasy series, and in a variety of films, programmes and plays.
