Bertha Rabbinowicz-Kreidmann (Yiddish: בערטהא ראבינאוויטץ־קריידמאן; died May 16, 1871) was a Hebrew poet and letter writer.[1]

Her father, Moshe Aharon Kreidmann, was an educated man from Iași who encouraged his daughter's literary pursuits.[2] She moved to Vienna after her marriage to Baruch Rabbinowicz, who was studying medicine there.[3] She did not live happily with her husband and fell into a depression, which ultimately led her to take her own life at the age of 22.[4]
