Biography

Ema Derossi-Bjelajac, sometimes rendered Derosi-Bjelajac (born 3 May 1926) is a Croatian politician who served as the President of the Presidency of the Socialist Republic of Croatia (a constituent republic of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia) from 1985 until 1986. She was the first woman to hold a title equivalent to a head of state in modern-day Croatia. She served in a number of high-ranking functions within the League of Communists of Croatia and the Croatian republican government of the period: notably, she was a Member of the Central Committee of the League between 1964–1974, and was a Member and Deputy Speaker of the Croatian Parliament (Sabor) between 1978 and 1982. At age 93, she is the oldest living former Croatian head of state (albeit in a sub-national capacity).

She served in the Central Committee of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia from 1964 to 1968.
