Leonard Alfred Schneider (13 Oktober 1925 – 3 Agustus 1966), yang lebih dikenal dengan nama panggungnya Lenny Bruce, adalah seorang komedian tunggal, kritikus sosial dan satiris Yahudi-Amerika. Ia dikenal atas bentuk komedi kritis, gaya bebas dan terbukanya yang memasukan satir, politik, agama, seks, dan vulgaritas. Dakwaan tahun 1964-nya dalam sebuah pengadilan kelewatan moral disusul oleh pencabutan anumerta, pertama kali dalam sejarah negara bagian New York, oleh Gubernur pada masa itu George Pataki pada 2003.

Ia memberikan jalan bagi masa depan para komedian era kontra-budaya, dan pengadilannya atas dakwaan kelewatan moral dipandang sebagai markah tanah bagi kebebasan berbicara di Amerika Serikat.^{[10][11][12][13]} Pada 2017, mejalah Rolling Stone mengangkatnya pada peringkat ketiga (disamping Richard Pryor dan George Carlin) pada daftar 50 komika tunggal terbaik sepanjang masa buatannya.^[14]
