Albert Ernest Bowen (31 July 1875—15 July 1953) was a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Born in Henderson Creek, Idaho to David Bowen and Annie Shackleton, Bowen was chosen by Church President Heber J. Grant to fill a spot in the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles that was left vacant by the death of Alonzo A. Hinckley. Prior to his calling as an apostle, Bowen served on the General Board of the Deseret Sunday School Union.
Bowen died in Salt Lake City, Utah at the age of 77. He was replaced in the Quorum of the Twelve by Richard L. Evans.
