Margaret Cicely Langton Greene OBE FRCSLT was a British speech and language therapist.

She was elected a Fellow of the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists in 1957.[1] She was also the editor of its Bulletin and its journal, Speech, in the mid- 1950s.[2] In 1957 Greene published The Voice and its Disorders, which represented a major contribution to the clinical assessment and treatment of voice disorders and was amongst the few texts available on the subject at the time.[3] The book is now into its 6th edition, most recently updated and re-published in 2001 by Lesley Mathieson.[4]

In 1968 she founded AFASIC, the Association for all speech impaired children, a charity for children with speech problems.[5]

Margaret Greene received an OBE in the 1987 Birthday Honours for services to Speech Therapy.[6][7]
