Katharine Burdekin (23 July 1896 – 10 August 1963) (born Katharine Penelope Cade) was a British novelist who wrote speculative fiction concerned with social and spiritual matters.〔John Clute,
"Burdekin, Katherine P(enelope)" in The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, edited by John Clute and
Peter Nicholls. London, Orbit,1994. ISBN 1-85723-124-4 (p.175).〕 She was the sister of Rowena Cade, creator of the Minack Theatre in Cornwall. Several of her novels could be categorized as feminist utopian/dystopian fiction. She also wrote under the name Kay Burdekin and under the pseudonym Murray Constantine. Daphne Patai unraveled "Murray Constantine's" true identity while doing research on utopian and dystopian fiction in the mid-1980s.

The family moved to Australia, where Katharine Burdekin started writing. Her first novel, ''Anna Colquhoun'', was published in 1922. Her marriage ended in the same year, and she moved back to the UK. In 1926, she met a woman with whom she formed a lifelong relationship.
