Ezra Stiles Gannett (1801–1871) was a unitarian minister in Boston, Massachusetts.
The grandson of Yale University president Ezra Stiles, he was graduated from Harvard College, and in 1824 he began working for the Federal Street Church; he remained with the congregation for the duration of his career. In 1861 he moved with his congregation to a new building, the Arlington Street Church in Back Bay. He was also associated with the American Unitarian Association. "He was a Unitarian of the more conservative type, an excellent preacher, and an ardent reformer." Gannett is buried in Mount Auburn Cemetery. He was the great-grandfather of author Ruth Stiles Gannett.
