André Mauprey (19 August 1881 – 3 February 1939) was a French writer, composer, librettist, and actor. He helped to popularize The Three Penny Opera, and was the first to translate many of its songs into French. Working with Robert de Mackiels and Serge Veber, he wrote the lyrics for the operetta Tip-Toes based on the melodies of George Gershwin. His music and lyrics were sung by Édith Piaf, Juliette Gréco, Marianne Oswald, Marlene Dietrich, and Mathé Altéry.
