Paola Drigo was an Italian writer of short stories, novellas, and novels.

Her last major works were two novels, Fine d'anno and Maria Zef, both published in 1936. With a style rooted in 19th century Italian realism, she was admired for the detailed psychological analysis of her characters and her descriptions of provincial life in her native Veneto region. The protagonists of her stories were people of humble origin or those who had been "humiliated by fate".
