Klaus Uuno Suomela[1] (November 10, 1888 – April 4, 1962) was a Finnish artistic gymnast and writer. He won an Olympic silver medal in 1912. One of his most successful works was the film script on which the popular 1942 film Hopeakihlajaiset ("Silver Engagement") was based. Suomela later worked his script into a novel.[2]
