Victor Leon, also Viktor Leon (born Victor Hirschfeld, Hungarian: Hirschfeld Viktor; 4 January 1858, Szenitz (Szenice), nearby Pozsony – 3 February 1940, Vienna) was a well-known Jewish Hungarian-Austrian librettist. He collaborated with Leo Stein to produce the libretto of Franz Lehar's romantic operetta The Merry Widow (Die lustige Witwe). He was born Viktor Hirschfeld in Upper Hungary on 4 January 1858. He began a career as a journalist, and then branched out in the theatre under the pseudonym that was to become familiar - Viktor Leon. Between 1880 and 1884 he wrote one-act libretti for Vienna's Ronacher variety theatre, the Carl-Schultze Theatre in Hamburg, and the German Theatre in Pest, collaborating with composers such as Max von Weinzierl, Rudolf Raimann and Alfred Zamara. Then came a three-act collaboration with Zamara, Der Doppelganger, produced at the Theater am Gartnerplatz in Munich in September 1886.
