Ann Leslie "Lee" Garlington (born July 20, 1953) is an American actress.

Garlington was born in Teaneck, New Jersey. She has guest starred in a number of notable television series, including The West Wing, 7th Heaven, 8 Simple Rules, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Judging Amy, L.A. Law, The Practice, Quantum Leap, The Riches, Boston Legal, Roseanne, Get a Life, Profiler, Medium, Lie to Me and other shows. She also played the part of Kirsten, Rose Nylund's (Betty White) daughter in the final season of The Golden Girls, and Ronni, the mistress of Joey Tribianni's father, on Friends. She had a recurring role on Everwood. She was one of the stars of the series Lenny.

She also appeared in the sequel to Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho, Psycho II in 1983 and its successor, Psycho III in 1986. The same year she starred alongside Sylvester Stallone and Brigette Nielsen in the action/thriller Cobra. In the 1992 film Sneakers she played Dr. Elena Rhyzkov a Czechoslovakian mathematics scientist, in a scene with Robert Redford.

Garlington was originally intended for the lead female role in Seinfeld. She was the female regular in the pilot episode, "The Seinfeld Chronicles", playing the waitress Claire at Pete's Luncheonette. When the series was picked up, however, it was decided that there was no need for a regular female waitress, so Garlington's role was dropped, and she did not re-appear.
