Iris Origo
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.
