About Federico Romero
- Federico Romero Saráchaga (11 November 1886 – 30 June 1976) was a Spanish poet and essayist.
- He is particularly known as a writer of libretti, primarily for zarzuelas.
- Although he was born in Oviedo and lived at times in both Zaragoza and Madrid, he considered himself a son of Spain's La Mancha region, where his family had lived from the early 20th century in the small town of La Solana (Ciudad Real).
- The zarzuela La rosa del azafrán, composed by Jacinto Guerrero to a libretto by Romero, is considered emblematic of the region.
