Barry Stevens (born 1952) is a Toronto-based writer and filmmaker.

In 1997 he co-wrote (with Steven Silver) the International Emmy Award-winning documentary Gerrie & Louise, about the South African Truth Commission. Since this time he has devoted himself almost exclusively to documentary work, writing and directing several critically acclaimed documentaries including Offspring (2001) which won the Donald Brittain Award, the IDFA Audience Award, and was nominated for an Emmy and a Grierson, The Bomber's Dream (2006), Bio-Dad (2009) and Prosecutor (2010).

Through the making of Offspring and Bio-Dad, which chronicled the search for his own sperm-donor father, Stevens discovered he was one of 1000 potential offspring of Dr. Bertold P. Wiesner, who ran a London-based fertility clinic between 1943 and 1962.
