Georgie Sterling was an Australian actress, noted for her work in radio and television, especially in TV films and serials, although she also appeared in theatre, in an acting career spanning a some 50-year period.

In serials she played Isabella Drysdale in the ill-fated series Taurus Rising but is possibly best known for her role as May Walters in Sons and Daughters. She also appeared in Homicide, Matlock Police and A Country Practice. She was married to fellow actor and radio producer John Saul.
