Bertie Alexander Meyer (17 June 1877 - mid November 1967) was a British theatre producer and entrepreneur.

Meyer had been involved with the adaptation of Agatha Christie's books into plays as early as 1928 with Alibi. However, when Meyer was approached by Christie in 1950 to produce a stage adaptation of her novel The Hollow, he turned it down as he believed it would be too difficult to cast, although it has been speculated that the anti-Semitism in the novel was the primary reason. Meyer also turned down her Towards Zero, causing annoyance to Christie for his sudden aversion to her.
