Annie Elizabeth ("Bessie") Delany (1901 - 1995) is one of the famous Delany children and one of the main subjects of "Having Our Say: The Delany Sisters First 100 Years" written by Sarah and A. Elizabeth Delany with Amy Hill Hearth.

Bessie was the third child in a family of ten born to Nanny and Henry Delany. Like most of the Delany children, Bessie was born and raised in Raleigh where she would live until her early twenties.
