Pitigrilli, właśc. Dino Segre (ur. 9 maja 1893 w Turynie, zm. 8 maja 1975 tamże) – włoski pisarz, autor skandalizujących książek, uważany za pornografa (w myśl obowiązujących w dwudziestoleciu międzywojennym kryteriów). Po dojściu Mussoliniego do władzy wyemigrował do Paryża, a później do Argentyny, skąd po wojnie wrócił do Europy jako moralista i człowiek głęboko wierzący, nawrócony na katolicyzm. W 1951 wszystkie jego utwory zostały wycofane z polskich bibliotek oraz objęte cenzurą.
