Wilma Cozart Fine (March 29, 1927, Aberdeen, Mississippi – September 21, 2009, Harrison, New York) was an American record producer who, with her husband, C. Robert Fine (1922–1982), ran the classical division of Mercury Records in the 1950s and early 1960s, producing hundreds of recordings that, according her obituary in The New York Times, "Are still prized by collectors for the depth and realism of their sound."
