Cynthia Gibb (born December 14, 1963 in Bennington, Vermont, USA) is an American actress and former model who has starred in film and on television. Cynthia got her big break at the age of 14 when she was discovered by the Eileen Ford Agency in New York City. She was on the cover of Vogue and Young Miss.

Cynthia starred in the TV adaptation of Gypsy as the adult Rose Louise/Gypsy Rose Lee, opposite Bette Midler as Mama Rose. She later starred in the 1995 short lived TV series Deadly Games. Cynthia has also played in many TV movies, including the role of Karen Carpenter in The Karen Carpenter Story (1989).

In 1986, Cynthia starred in three feature films: Youngblood, Salvador and Modern Girls. She also was in the 1990 action film Death Warrant.
