Nesta Obermer OBE, (née Sawyer; 14 September 1893 – 3 October 1984), was a British philanthropist, playwright and artist. Born in Norfolk, she began writing as a child when illness forced her to be confined for a lengthy period. Travelling often, as a diplomat's daughter she began writing articles as a war correspondent during World War I. She married a wealthy playwright in 1925. As participants in an international social circle, the two travelled widely. Encouraged by her husband, Obermer wrote three plays which were produced in the 1930s in London theatres and was a well known reader on BBC Radio until the 1940s.
