Richard Rich, 1st Baron Rich (1496–1567), was an English lawyer and politician who served as Lord Chancellor from 1559 to 1572 under Queen Elizabeth I. He is often portrayed as a controversial figure, known for his role in the trial and execution of Thomas More. Rich's political maneuvering and shifting allegiances—particularly during the English Reformation—earned him a reputation as a cunning and ambitious individual.
