Inga-Britt Söderberg (2 February 1935 – 15 February 2019) was a Finnish model, and the 1955 Miss Finland and Miss Europe.{{cite news |title=Inga-Britt Söderberg 1935–2019 |url=https://www.hs.fi/muistot/art-2000006048684.html |access-date=17 June 2021 |work=Helsingin Sanomat |date=27 March 2019 |language=fi}}

In 1956, Söderberg married a Canadian diplomat, Donald D. Cliffe, and two years later the couple moved to Canada, where they had two daughters.

Prior to her beauty pageant victories, Söderberg had worked as a post office clerk.{{cite news |last1=Junttila |first1=Veli |title=Suomi 1955: Miss Eurooppa Suomesta |url=https://www.ts.fi/puheenvuorot/1074049009 |access-date=17 June 2021 |work=Turun Sanomat |date=6 June 2005 |language=fi}} Afterwards she began modelling, which continued until the early 1970s, as well as appearing in at least one film.{{cite web |title=Vuoden 1955 kaunein, Inga-Britt Söderberg |url=https://yle.fi/aihe/artikkeli/2006/09/08/vuoden-1955-kaunein-inga-britt-soderberg |publisher=Yle |access-date=17 June 2021 |language=fi |date=8 January 2020}}
