Miguel Itzigsohn (18??–1978) was an Argentine astronomer and observer of comets, credited by the Minor Planet Center with the discovery of 15 asteroids between 1948 and 1954.[1] The outer main-belt asteroid 1596 Itzigsohn, which he discovered himself, was named in his memory on 1 August 1980 (M.P.C. 5449).[2][3]

He was a department director at the La Plata Astronomical Observatory, specializing in astrometry and celestial mechanics, from 1955 to 1972. He was responsible for the surge in observational and computational activity in studies of minor planets in Argentina following World War II.[4]
