Anna-Maria Müller (later Murach, 23 February 1949 – 23 August 2009) was an East German luger who competed in the late 1960s and early 1970s. She won the gold medal in the women's singles event at the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo. At the previous Winter Olympics in Grenoble, she initially finished second after the competition was halted to three runs due to bad weather, but was disqualified with her East German teammates Ortrun Enderlein and Angela Knösel (who was fourth) when it was discovered that they had illegally heated their runners (which are used to guide the luge on the ice as it maneuvers down the track). Enderlein, who was leading at the time, and Müller were stripped of their respective medals as a result.[1]

Upon her Olympic victory in Sapporo, Müller explained that she enjoyed luge because it "...provided a harmonius counterbalance to my work as a pharmacist."

Müller also won a silver medal at the 1969 FIL World Luge Championships in Königssee, West Germany, as well as two medals at the FIL European Luge Championships: a gold in 1970 and a bronze in 1972.[1]

Анна-Мария Мюллер (нем. Anna-Maria Müller; 23 февраля 1949, Фридрихрода, ГДР — 23 августа 2009, Берлин, Германия) — немецкая саночница, выступавшая за сборную ГДР в конце 1960-х — начале 1970-х годов. Принимала участие в двух зимних Олимпийских играх и завоевала золотую медаль игр 1972 года в Саппоро в программе женских одиночных заездов. Четырьмя годами ранее на играх в Гренобле тоже выступала весьма успешно (после первых заездов шла на втором месте), однако во время перерыва, связанного с неподходящими погодными условиями, её уличили в разогреве полозьев, используемых для управления санями на льду и манёвров вниз по трассе), что по правилам было запрещено. В результате спортсменку вместе с её соотечественницами Ортрун Эндерляйн (первое место) и Ангелой Кнёсель (четвёртое место) дисквалифицировали, лишив тем самым потенциальных медалей.
