Regina Miriam Bloch (1889 – 1 March 1938) was a Jewish writer and poet.

Biography

She was born in Sondershausen, in the Principality of Schwarzburg-Sondershausen (present-day Thuringia), and educated in Berlin and London.[1] She was the third child of John (or Jacob) Bloch of Egbaston, Birmingham, editor of the German sporting journal Spiel und Sport (1891–1901).[2][3]

She settled in London after the First World War and in 1919 launched a public appeal for the formation in England of a Jewish arts and crafts society. She contributed essays, stories and poems to a number of periodicals, and wrote articles and prose fiction for both Jewish and non-Jewish newspapers and publications in the United States, England and the British colonies.[4] Some confusion was caused when it was wrongly claimed that Regina Miriam Bloch was the real name of Rebecca West.[5]

She was noted for a compact treatise she wrote on the life of Inayat Khan and his mission to the West.[6] She was interested in mysticism and contributed articles and book reviews to the Occult Review.

She died in London aged 49.[7]
