Janice Murphy (born October 19 1942) was an Australian freestyle swimmer of the 1960s, who won a silver medal in the 4x100m freestyle relay at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics.

Coming from Sydney, Murphy spent the majority of her career in the shadow of fellow Australian Dawn Fraser. She combined with Fraser, Lyn Bell and Robyn Thorn to finish second, 3.1s behind the United States. At the 1966 Commonwealth Games in Kingston, Jamaica, she collected a bronze in the 110yd freestyle and a silver in the 440yd individual medley, as well as silver in the freestyle relay.
