Linda Fabiani (born 14 December 1956, Glasgow) is a Scottish politician. A member of the Scottish National Party (SNP), she was elected as a regional member of the Scottish Parliament to represent Central Scotland at the 1999 election.

Re-elected in the 2003 election, she served as the SNP's Deputy Spokesman on Communities inside the Scottish Parliament and chaired the Parliament's European and External Relations Committee.

She has contested East Kilbride constituency at the last 3 Scottish Parliament elections where she has been runner-up to Andy Kerr of Labour on each occasion.

In 2007 was made Knight of the Order of the Star of Italian Solidarity by Italy in recognition of her work promoting links between Scotland and Italy. [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/6498849.stm] .

After the SNP's victory at the 2007 Scottish Parliament Election, Fabiani was appointed as the Minister for Europe, External Affairs and Culture.
