Ali Podrimja (28 August 1942 – 21 July 2012) was an Albanian poet. He was born in Gjakova, at the time part of Italian-controlled Albania under Italy (present-day Kosovo).
On 21 July 2012, French police notified Kosovar authorities about the discovery of Podrimja's deceased body. Podrimja had not been in touch with his family for several days.[1][2]
