Norbert Mann (born June 4, 1943 in Marburg ) is a former German politician in the Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen party .

Mann was one of the founders of the Green List of Environmental Protection in Mülheim an der Ruhr , in 1979 he was elected as secretary in its federal executive committee at the founding meeting of the “ Other Political Association The Greens” on March 17 and 18, 1979 in Frankfurt-Sindlingen. He later became a member of the North Rhine-Westphalian state association of the Greens. Since the second Federal Assembly in Saarbrücken in 1980, he was part of the party's first trio of speakers, along with Petra Kelly and August Haußleiter . In 1981 he no longer ran for this office; Manon Maren-Grisebach took his place . Due to the rotation principle of the Greens, he replaced Hans Verheyen as a member of the Bundestag on April 1, 1985 .

According to his own statements, Mann represented a “middle position”. After Jutta Ditfurth's radical left federal executive committee was overthrown by him at the end of 1988, he was re-elected as a member of the board of the Greens in 1989. Then he withdrew from active politics.

In 1997 he left the Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen party and joined the FDP .
