Erika Leuchtag (29 August 1908 – 11 August 1980) was a German physiotherapist. In 1949 she became the first European to enter the King of Nepal's palace in Kathmandu, where she was hired to treat the King's senior wife, Queen Kanti of Nepal. Leuchtag quickly began to treat the King too, and the two developed a close friendship. She supported him in his plans to overthrow the Prime Minister of the Rana dynasty, which had controlled the Shah dynasty and kept the royal family under house arrest for a century. In 1957 the Rank Organisation paid a "record price" for the film rights to her book With a King in the Clouds, before it had been written.
