Karen Jønsson (or Jönsson ) (17 January 1909 – 2 December 1942) was a Danish actress of Swedish descent. She was also a notable, gifted and popular singer, songwriter and composer. Throughout the 1930s she composed and recorded a number of catchy tunes and songs, often centered on her voice and refined stride-like piano playing, of which well over a handful still retain a certain recognition and popularity as evergreens, such as Hvorfor er Lykken så lunefuld, I Aften, Han kommer og banker, Din Melodi and Would You Miss One Little Kiss.
She also composed several filmscores, as well as a jazz rhapsody which was well received in Britain, all in between touring with her music and appearances on screen.

She died of pneumonia (at that time still a serious disease before the emergence of penicillin) at the age of 33.
