Irene Polo Roig (27 November 1909 – 3 April 1942) was a Spanish journalist, publicist, theater representative, and translator.

Because of the Spanish Civil War, she lived the last three years of her life in exile in Buenos Aires, where she committed suicide at the age of 32.

There were articles on fashion, such as the introduction of women's trousers and the appearance of the neckline, to reports of denunciation of social life, begging in Barcelona, the poor living conditions of workers and immigrants, and political alertness, including the story in which she pretends to be a follower of the National Action Youth or the articles devoted to censorship, when she herself was a victim.

[3] There, she worked as a French and English language translator for the publishers, Losada and Sopena, and she served as advertising director for Dana perfumeries, a job she did not like because of the long hours.

[4] Polo fell into depression because her love for Xirgu was not reciprocated,[2] and committed suicide at the age of 32, in Buenos Aires, 3 April 1942.
