Rowan Dean is an Australian advertising executive, television presenter and social commentator. He rose to prominence as a panelist on early seasons of Gruen, and subsequently became an opinion commentator with multiple newspapers and a co-host of conservative Sky News Australia program Outsiders. He is regarded as a right-wing conservative commentator.

Dean moved to England in 1978 and worked in a number of advertising agencies. He is credited with co-writing the 'Photobooth' commercial for Hamlet Cigars, one of the most awarded ads of all time, as well as successfully launching Foster's Lager into the UK market, winning D&AD Awards and both Gold and Silver Cannes Lions. Dean returned to Australia in 1988 working in the Australian advertising industry, setting up Rowan Dean Films in 1995 to produce advertisements.
