Leslie Barbara Knope (born January 18, 1975) is a perky, mid-level bureaucrat in the parks department of Pawnee, a fictional town in Indiana. She is the central character in the NBC comedy Parks and Recreation. Knope is portrayed by Amy Poehler. Leslie views herself as a budding political star in the style of Hillary Rodham Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, and Condoleezza Rice. She has an outsized love for the waffles at a local diner and an untempered hatred for public libraries, salads and the wealthy neighboring town of Eagleton--where Leslie found out, to her sheer horror, that she was actually born instead of Pawnee.
