Annie Salomons was a Dutch writer, poet, and translator, born in Rotterdam on June 26, 1885, and she died in The Hague on January 16, 1980. She is commonly identified in reference works as Anna Maria Francisca Salomons.

Her work moved across several forms, including poetry, fiction, and memoir. Dutch biographical sources especially note the success of Herinneringen van een onafhankelijke vrouw, which helped make her a widely read literary voice.
