Kathleen Eileen Moray Gray (9 August 1878–31 October 1976) was an Irish architect and furniture designer.
Born in Enniscorthy, County Wexford, Ireland in 1878, she spent her childhood in London and was among the first women to be admitted to the Slade School of Art where she took up painting in 1898 before undergoing an apprenticeship in a London lacquer workshop. Gray died in 1976, at the age of 98, in Paris.
