Elisabeth Darina Laracy Silone (30 March 1917 – 25 July 2003) was an Irish journalist, translator, and anti-fascist.
In 1940, she moved to Italy, visiting Milan briefly and then settling in Rome, where she worked as a correspondent for the Herald Tribune and the International News Service.
[1][2] Laracy was initially based in Bern, where she gave a full account to the chief intelligence officer.
She moved to Zurich when an English publisher commissioned her to write a book on the situation in Italy.
She convinced Silone to let her assist him in his work against Fascist Italy and they returned to Rome in October 1944.
