Dennis H. Carter[1][2] was a Canadian architect and amateur filmmaker.

Both he and his partner Ernest Smith, with whom he founded Smith Carter, were, according to Jeffrey Thorsteinson, among several "significant modern architects" who graduated from the University of Manitoba's architecture program prior to 1946,[3] and who were "vital to the rise of a notable regional strain of Canadian architecture" referred to as Manitoba modernism.[4]
