Maria Messina (Palermo, 14 marzo 1887 – Pistoia, 19 gennaio 1944) è stata una scrittrice italiana.
Nacque a Palermo, secondo alcune fonti a Alimena, in provincia di Palermo, da Gaetano, ispettore scolastico, e Gaetana Valenza Traina, discendente di una famiglia baronale di Prizzi. Cresciuta a Messina, trascorse un'infanzia isolata, con i genitori ed i fratelli. Durante l'adolescenza, viaggiò molto, per via dei continui spostamenti del padre, finché, nel 1911, la sua famiglia si stabilì a Napoli.
All'età di ventidue anni, iniziò una fitta corrispondenza con Giovanni Verga, e tra il 1909 e il 1921, pubblicò una serie di racconti. Grazie all'appoggio di Verga, i
