Catherine "Cate" McKean Poynton (1942 – 2021) was an Australian linguist known for her contributions to systemic functional linguistics. Her work focused on the relationship between language, gender, and social relations.[1] Poynton was a pioneer in the description of tenor and interpersonal meaning, which later became foundational to the development of the appraisal framework.[2][3][4]
She held appointments at the University of South Australia, and at Western Sydney University.[1]
