Suzanne Voute (12 March 1922, Poitiers - 3 December 2001, Marseilles) was a militant Left Communist active in France from the 1940s. She became a member of the team, alongside Maximilien Rubel and Michel Jacob who translated much of the work of Karl Marx into French for Gallimard.

In 1943 she co-founded the Fraction Française de la Gauche Communiste Internationale (FFGCI) with Robert Salama and Marc Chirik, along with some other Italian refugees based in France. The group was linked to the Internationalist Communist Party which had just been founded.
