Thomas Sterling Berry (10 January 1854 – 25 February 1931) was the 9th Bishop of Killaloe, Kilfenora, Clonfert and Kilmacduagh.[1]

Educated at Trinity College, Dublin[2] and ordained in 1877, his first posts were curacies at Christ Church, Kingstown and St George's, Dublin. Later he held incumbencies at Birr and Booterstown[3] before his ordination to the episcopate in 1913.[4]
He died in post.

Berry authored Christianity and Buddhism: A Comparison and a Contrast. The book rejected the idea of Buddhist influences on Christianity.[5]
