Barbara Farris, born September 10, 1976, is a basketball player for the Phoenix Mercury in the WNBA.

On March 14, 2008 Farris signed with the Phoenix Mercury. She played significant minutes there as a reserve power forward during the first half of the 2008 season while Penny Taylor stayed home in Australia to practice with her national team.

Farris previously played for the New York Liberty. In the 2007 season she played in 28 regular-season games and all three of the Liberty's playoff appearances. Farris started in 2006, but was relegated to the bench after the Liberty acquired Janel McCarville, Jessica Davenport, and Tiffany Jackson in 2007.

Farris graduated in 1998 from Tulane University, where she majored in sociology. As a member of the Tulane Green Wave women's basketball team, she was named to the Conference USA All-Star first team in her junior year and posted a total of 34 double-doubles.

From 2000-2005, Farris played for the WNBA's Detroit Shock. She also has played professionally in France, Spain, and Korea, and for the New England team in the American Basketball League.
