Peter Anderson (1901–1984) was an American ceramist and founder of Shearwater Pottery in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. He was born in New Orleans to George Walter Anderson, a grain broker, and Annette McConnell Anderson, member of a prominent New Orleans family, who had studied art at Newcomb College, where he had absorbed the ideals of the American Arts and Crafts movement.

By 1931 the Shearwater pottery achieved national recognition in New York's Contemporary American Ceramics Exhibition. His pieces were also displayed at several museums including The Virginia Museum of fine Arts and the Old Capitol Museum in Jackson.
