Angelika Hurwicz (22 April 1922, Berlin – 26 November 1999, Bergen) was a German actress and theatre director. She worked with Bertolt Brecht at his Berliner Ensemble company until 1958, when she moved to West Germany. Hurwicz was the first female director at the Burgtheater in 1978.

Harwich was the daughter of writer Elias Hurwicz [de] and was of Jewish descent, which made her unable to attend drama school under the Nuremberg Laws. Instead, she trained privately with state actress Lucie Höflich.
