Gemma La Guardia Gluck (April 24, 1881 – November 2, 1962) was an American writer, of Italian Jewish origin, who lived in Hungary and was a survivor of the Holocaust.

Her autobiography, published in 1961, tells of her experience as a survivor of the Ravensbrück concentration camp, but also offers vivid memories of her childhood spent in America with her parents and brother Fiorello La Guardia, the future first Italian-American mayor of New York.

Gemma, with her brothers Fiorello and Richard, went with their father to the various places where he was posted: Fort Sully, South Dakota, Watertown, New York, and finally Arizona.

[3] In 1898, her father, seriously ill during the Spanish-American war, left the American army, and the family moved to the maternal home of Trieste, in the then Austro-Hungarian Empire.

It is an important testimony to the story of a Hungarian Jewish family who were victims of the Holocaust and the terrible living conditions in the Ravensbrück concentration camp, but also offers vivid memories of the childhood spent in America with her brother Fiorello and their parents.
