Federico Gamboa Iglesias (22 December 1864 – 15 August 1939) was a writer and diplomat from Mexico. He has been considered as one of the top representatives of Naturalism in México. Gamboa wrote novels, theater pieces, articles for newspapers and magazines and an autobiography when he was 28 years old. For many years he took notes of his travels, experiences and thoughts, which he later published as five diaries. Posthumously another two volumes of his diaries were published.
