Mathew Brady (Warren konderria, New York, c. 1822-1824 – New York, 1896ko urtarrilaren 15a) estatubatuar argazkilaria izan zen.
Samuel Morse asmatzailearekin ikasi zuen, dagerrotipoaren teknikaren aitzindaria Ameriketako Estatu Batuetan. 1844an estudio bat ireki zuen New Yorken eta John Quincy Adams eta Abraham Lincoln bezalako pertsona ospetsuei argazkiak atera zizkien. 19 presidente estatubatuarretatik 18ri argazkiak atera zizkien John Quincy Adamsetik William McKinleyra.
Ameriketako Estatu Batuetako Gerra Zibilaean, estudio mugikor bat erabiltzeak gudu-zelaian argazkiak egiteko aukera eman zion. Gerrako eszenen eta jeneralen eta politikarien erretratuen milaka argazki egin ziren. Horietako asko Bradyko bertaratuek egin zituzten.
Gerra amaitzean, argazkiak gobernu estatubatuarrari saldu nahi izan zizkion, baina honek uko egin zion. Brady pobrezian hil zen.
