Rhea Butcher (born August 12, 1982) is an American stand-up comic, actress, writer, producer, and podcast host. She is best known for her personal, observational comedy focused on her vegetarianism, feminism, love of baseball, and experiences as a butch lesbian. Originally from Akron, Butcher now resides in Los Angeles with her wife and fellow comic Cameron Esposito.

Butcher began her comedy career performing improv in Chicago at The Second City and has since performed stand-up at clubs including Zanies, the Jukebox, and Flappers, as well as Chicago Underground Comedy, The Hideout, The Lincoln Lodge, UCB, and Meltdown. She made her late night debut on Conan in June 2016.

In the fall of 2014, Butcher appeared alongside Esposito in a series of videos for BuzzFeed Motion Pictures titled "Ask a Lesbian." The pair was also tapped to co-host the web series "She Said" for Amy Poehler's Smart Girls Network.
