Stanisława Umińska (1901-1977) was a Polish theatre actress.

In early 1920s she was considered one of the rising stars of the Polish theatre, but in 1924 in Paris, France, she shot dead her dying fiance, Jan Żyznowski, upon his request as an act of euthanasia. Set free by the French court, she became a nurse and a nun in Poland.
