Nina Andrycz (11 November 1912 – 31 January 2014) was a Polish actress and the wife of Józef Cyrankiewicz.[1][2] She studied law at the Wilno University.

She was one of the first noted customers of the photographer Zofia Nasierowska. Andrycz told Nasierowska that she used a mirror to get the right look in her face. Nasierowska at the time was just twenty but she believed that although some women believed that they could improve their look while looking in the mirror Nasierowska said this was a fallacy. She took photos of Andrycz allowing her to use her mirror, but the ones chosen for publication were created without the mirror.[3]
