Jacqueline du Bief (born December 4, 1930) is a French figure skater. She was the 1952 World Champion and won the Bronze medal at the 1952 Winter Olympics.

She is a six-time National Champion (1947-1952) and won the Silver medal at the 1951 World Championships. She won the Silver medal at the European Championships three times (1950, 1951 and 1952). Her win in 1952 at the World Championships was controversial since she fell twice in the free skate but still manage to win in her home country due to figures. As a result glass bottles were thrown and fans were jeering.^{[citation needed]}
