Anne Nicole Brunell, OAM (née Currie ; born 13 July 1970) is an Australian Paralympic swimmer. She was born without legs and only three fingers on her right hand.
She started competitive swimming at the age of 11 and swam for the Nunawading and North Dandenong swimming clubs. At the 1984 New York/Stoke Mandeville Games, she won a bronze medal in the Women's 100 m Freestyle A1 event. At just under 14 years of age, this made her the youngest Australian Paralympic medallist at that time, surpassing Elizabeth Edmondson, who won gold at 14 years and 4 months at the 1964 Tokyo Paralympics. In 2012, Maddison Elliott passed them both and became the youngest Australian Paralympic medallist and gold medallist at the 2012 London Games. At the 1998 Seoul Paralympics, Currie, won silver in the Women's 4 x 100 m freestyle relay. Currie won three gold medals in the Women's 50 m and 100 m Freestyle S6 and Women's 4 × 100 m Freestyle Relay S7 events and a silver medal in the Women's 4 × 100 m Freestyle S1 at the 1990 World Championships and Games for the Disabled, Assen, Netherlands.
