Advokaat Gladys Steyn was Suid-Afrika se eerste vroulike advokaat.

Gladys Evelyn Steyn is op 12 Desember 1890 in Bloemfontein gebore en was die dogter van pres. Marthinus Theunis Steyn van die Oranje-Vrystaat en sy vrou Rachel Isabella (Tibbie) Steyn. Sy het in 1907 aan die Oranje Meisieskool in Bloemfontein gematrikuleer en in 1924 het sy haar as ’n advokaat in Londen bekwaam. Sy was die tweede vrou wat ’n LLB-graad verwerf het en die eerste een wat tot die Vrystaatse balie toegelaat is en as advokaat in die Vrystaat gepraktiseer het. Daarby het sy tot die politiek toegetree en was in 1933 die eerste vrou wat op die Vrystaatse provinsiale raad gedien het.

Sy was met Walter Bosman getroud en is op 25 September 1989 in die besonder hoë ouderdom van 98 jaar oorlede..
