Henri-René Lenormand (3 May 1882 - 16 February 1951) was a French playwright. He was born on 3 May 1882 in Paris. His plays, steeped in symbolism, were recognized for their explorations of subconscious motivation, deeply reflecting the influence of the theories of Sigmund Freud. He was the son of a composer, René Lenormand, and was educated at the University of Paris. When Lenormand died on 16 February 1951 in Paris, he was survived by his wife, Dutch actress Marie Kalff.
