Anna-Liese Kornitzky (* 1909 ; † 2000 ) was a German translator of Swedish and English-language literature. She is best known for her translations of twenty Astrid Lindgren books from Swedish. She wrote most of her translations in the 1950s and 1960s. Word creations like "Donnerdrummel" or "Potz Pestilenz" (from the novel Ronja the robber's daughter ) are typical of her style.
