Halina Birenbaum (Hebrew: הלינה בירנבאום; Warsaw, 15 September 1929) is a Polish-born Israeli Holocaust survivor, writer, poet, translator and activist.

Born in Warsaw, to Jakub Grynsztajn and Pola formerly Perl, née Kijewska, she was the youngest of three and the only daughter.

She survived forced evacuation of the camp, the Death March of January 1945, from Auschwitz to Wodzisław Śląski,[4] from which she was transported to Ravensbrück and in February on to Neustadt-Glewe, from where she was liberated by the Red Army in May 1945.

She spends much of her time talking about her early experiences with Israeli, Polish and German youth.

Life and death during the German occupation of Poland and the martyrdom of Polish Jewry in ghettos and extermination camps are the salient themes of her prose and poetic output.
