Lorraine Hanlon Comanor (born in 1946) is an American retired figure skater who competed in ladies singles.

After retiring from ice skating, Hanlon went on to attend medical school and practiced as an anesthesiologist for 20 years before going into pharmaceutical medicine.

As a child, she suffered from severe asthma and began skating after her mother took her to an ice rink to get away from pollen.

Hanlon was a graduate of the Winsor School in Boston, and was attending the Swiss Alpine College in Switzerland the same year she won her U.S. title.
