László Katonka (born 1916) was a Hungarian film editor.[1] He worked prolifically between 1939 and 1944 on over forty films, editing some of the major productions of wartime Hungary, while working at the Hunnia Studios in Budapest. He collaborated with a number of directors including Károly Makk who described him as having "devilishly fast hands and an excellent sense of rhythm".[2] Like many filmmaker his career came to an end around the time of the German invasion of Hungary which effectively halted production.
