Lina Ramann (July 24, 1833 – March 30, 1912) was a German writer and teacher known for her books on the Hungarian composer and pianist Franz Liszt.
During 1874–1894, she wrote his "official" though inaccurate three-volume biography "Franz Liszt, the artist and man" (Franz Liszt als Künstler und Mensch) which was published between 1880 and 1894. At Ramann's request, Liszt revived in part one of his lost piano sonatas that he had composed in his youth (Anfang einer Jugendsonate, S.692b).
