Rachael Elaine Harris (born January 12, 1968, in Worthington, Ohio) is an American actress and comedian. She graduated from Worthington High School and went on to graduate from Otterbein College, majoring in theater. She has also performed with the Los Angeles improv troupe, Groundlings.

Her film credits include roles in Best in Show, A Mighty Wind, For Your Consideration, Starsky & Hutch, Kicking & Screaming, and Daddy Day Care.
She landed her first television gig on a 1993 episode of SeaQuest DSV and after an appearance on Star Trek: Voyager in 1997, she went on to a recurring role in Disney's Sister, Sister. Other television credits include a stint as a correspondent for The Daily Show's 2002-2003 season, as well as guest spots on The Sarah Silverman Program, Reno 911!, The West Wing, Friends, Star Trek Voyager, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Monk.
