Federico García Lorca () (5 June 1898 ? 19 August 1936) was a Spanish poet, dramatist and theatre director.

He is thought to be one of the many thousands who were 'disappeared' and executed by Nationalists at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War . In 2008, a Spanish judge opened an investigation into Lorca's death. Lorca's family dropped objections to the excavation of a possible gravesite near Alfacar but no human remains were found.
