Ernst Bach (10 May 1876 – 1 November 1929) was an Austrian actor and playwright. He made his debut as an actor at the Raimund Theater in Vienna in 1899. In 1903 he moved to Berlin to the Residenz-Theater, then to the Lustspielhaus in 1905, where he became Regisseur in 1906 and in 1908 Oberregisseur.
In 1909 he started what was to become a 20-year partnership with Franz Arnold as a duo Arnold and Bach, with whom he wrote more than 20 plays, mainly farces and operettas. Their first hit play was The Spanish Fly in 1913. They went on to become one of the leading playwriting teams in Weimar Germany.
In 1917 he became the director of the Münchner Volkstheater in Munich, whilst continuing his writing partnership with Franz Arnold at Starnberg. He remained in Munich until his death in 1929.
