Rebecca West (born December 21, 1892, London, England—died March 15, 1983, London) was a British journalist, novelist, and critic, who was perhaps best known for her reports on the Nürnberg trials of Nazi war criminals (1945–46).

‘Rebecca West’ was the pseudonym of Cicily Isabel Andrews: novelist, literary critic, journalist, and committed feminist and socialist. A contributor to Time and Tide from its first issue, she was also one of its long-term directors.
In 1947, Time magazine called West ‘indisputably the world’s number one woman writer’ and she was equally distinguished as a novelist, literary critic, travel writer (becoming particularly associated with Yugoslavia), and as a journalist who covered the Nuremberg trials.
