Susan Vera Cooper OBE (29 October 1902 – 28 July 1995) was a prolific English ceramic designer working in the Stoke-on-Trent pottery industries from the 1920s to the 1980s.

In 1922 she joined the ceramics firm A. E. Gray & Co. Ltd,[2] partially as a means to gain entry to the Royal College of Art.

In 1929, motivated by her desire to design ceramic shapes in addition to decors, she broke away with her brother-in-law Albert "Jack" Beeson to set up her own business, as Susie Cooper Potteries.

[citation needed] At the age of 80 she retired to live on the Isle of Man, and died there in 1995.

Like the Potteries-based ceramic designers Clarice Cliff and Charlotte Rhead, her work has become highly sought after and valued by some pottery collectors.
