Susan M. Johnson (born August 28, 1969), later known by her married name Susan Lipscomb, is an American former competition swimmer who represented the United States at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul. She competed in the B Final of the women's 100-meter breaststroke and finished with the thirteenth-best time of all competitors (1:11.08).[1]

Susan left competitive swimming after the Olympics in 1988. She resumed competitive swimming at Southern Methodist University in 1990. She placed third in the 100 yard breaststroke at the 1991 NCAA championships. In 1992 she placed first in the 100 yard breaststroke.
