Gertrud Leutenegger (7 December 1948 – 20 June 2025) was a Swiss poet, novelist, playwright and theatre director who wrote in German. Her first novel, Vorabend, appeared in 1975, and her last novel, the 2014 Panischer Frühling, earned her shortlisting in major German and Swiss awards and the Roswitha Prize. Her work, told in the first person, has been described as "a finely woven, quiet art with a tone all of its own, a searching, groping literature".
