Brett Porter (1913 - July 1970) was an Australian producer, writer and director best known for his work in TV. He worked at ATN-7 Sydney producing with David Cahill some of the first drama made for Australian television.
He moved to the ABC in 1964, where he directed documentaries and worked on the current affairs prestige program Four Corners. He then became the first executive producer of the popular serial Bellbird and served as the vice president of the Producers and Directors' Guild, of which he was a foundation member.
Porter's last credit was for the progressive 1969
serial adapting Pastures of the Blue Crane, with its theme of anti-bigotry. He was developing a new religious series when he died in late July 1970 aged 57.
