Elly Annie Schneider (1914?-September 6, 2004) was an actress who played one of the Munchkin villagers in The Wizard of Oz (1939).

Born in Stolpen, Germany, she moved to the United States in 1925 to join three siblings who were also midgets. She was 39 inches tall and weighed 46 pounds.

The four siblings-Harry, Gracie, Daisy and Tiny-were among the little people who welcomed Dorothy to Munchkinland in a 10-minute scene in The Wizard of Oz. They also appeared in Sailors, Beware, a 1927 Laurel and Hardy short, and the cult classic Freaks, in 1932, and performed with the Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus and the Christiana Brothers Circus.
