Dame Iris Margaret Origo, Marchesa Origo, DBE (née Cutting; 15 August 1902 – 28 June 1988) was an English-born biographer and writer. She lived in Italy and devoted much of her life to improving the Tuscan estate at La Foce, near Montepulciano, which she bought with her husband in the 1920s. During the Second World War, she persistently sheltered refugee children and helped many escaped Allied prisoners of war and partisans, in defiance of Italy's fascist regime and Nazi occupation forces.

rdfs:comment	Iris Origo, geborene Iris Margaret Cutting (* 15. August 1902 in Birdlip, Gloucestershire; † 28. Juni 1988 in Siena) war eine irisch-US-amerikanische Schriftstellerin und Historikerin, die ihr Leben in Italien verbrachte und eine Reihe bedeutender Biographien hinterließ, darunter Werke zu Cola di Rienzo, Bernhardin von Siena, Francesco Datini, Gaetano Salvemini und Giacomo Leopardi. Von 1927 bis zu ihrem Tod lebte sie zusammen mit ihrem Ehemann Antonio Origo in der Villa La Foce bei Chianciano Terme nahe Montepulciano in der Toskana, später auch in Rom. Der Aufbau dieses Landguts und die Kultivierung des Tals sind ein bedeutender Teil ihres Lebenswerks, ebenso wie die historischen Werke, die in den Fachwissenschaften eine Rolle spielen, vor allem aber zur Popularisierung beitrugen.
