About Rachel Berry
Rachel Barbra Berry is a fictional character and one of the main protagonists on the Fox musical comedy-drama series Glee. The character is portrayed by actress Lea Michele, and appears in Glee from its pilot episode, first broadcast on May 19, 2009. Rachel was developed by Glee creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan. She is the glee club star of the fictional William McKinley High School in Lima, Ohio, where the show is set. Her storylines have seen her suffer peer alienation due to her Broadway ambitions and overeager personality, but she is very kind-hearted and willing to help even if people do not need it and develop romantic feelings for Jesse St. James, a member of rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline, but primarily for quarterback and glee club co-captain Finn Hudson, to whom she eventually becomes engaged. Hudson later dies in season 5, with his cause of death not being revealed. This was due to his actor, Cory Monteith, dying in real life, which led to his character being killed off. Berry later reconciles with her ex-boyfriend, Jesse St. James in season 6. In the series finale, it’s revealed that Rachel married Jesse, and became a surrogate for friends Kurt Hummel and Blaine Anderson.
