Julius Streicher (born : 12 February 1885 in Fleinhausen, Bavaria, Germany/died : 16 October 1946 in Nuremberg, Bavaria, Germany) made propaganda for Nazi Germany.

Streicher published the racist newspaper Der Stürmer. His publishing company also sold three anti-Semitic books for children, including the 1938 Der Giftpilz (The Poison Mushroom). This was one of the most commonly read pieces of propaganda. The book said that Jewish people were dangerous, just like a nice-looking but deadly mushroom.

After World War II, Streicher was convicted of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg Trials. He was executed.
