Anja Steinbauer (born 1966) is a London-based Sinologist and philosopher.
Much of Steinbauer's scholarly work has related to the Chinese New Confucian philosopher Tang Junyi.
For some years Steinbauer taught philosophy as part of the adult education department at Birkbeck College in London.
When the courses at Birkbeck were cut as a cost-saving measure in 2010, she and six other ex-Birkbeck philosophy tutors joined together to found a new college: the London School of Philosophy (LSP).
The LSP's first-ever lecture was given by Anja Steinbauer in January 2011, on the subject "Philosophy and Literature".
