Susana Soca (1906–1959) was a Uruguayan poet-writer and a consummate networker.
During the most productive part of her public career, much of which coincided with the Second World War, she lived in France.
Soca also founded and for many years produced the transatlantic literary journal La Licorne.
Both in her journal and elsewhere she was notable for the extent and effectiveness of her support for fellow writers from Latin America and Europe.She died near Rio de Janeiro airport when the Lockheed airliner on which she was a passenger crashed, killing all 29 passengers and 7 of the 10 crew members.
