Lea DeLaria

Lea DeLaria is the unapologetic, jazz-singing, self-proclaimed Butch Dyke, stand-up comic, and Queer activist widely recognizable thanks to her tour de force performance as Big Boo in Netflix’s Orange Is The New Black. Heterosexuals are hard-pressed to name another famous Butch Dyke, making DeLaria the mascot for her community. Having performed professionally as a singer and stand-up comic most of her life, she can weave sarcastic nuances into her acting performances that give her characters a memorable and loveable edge.
