Christopher "Chris" Traeger is a fictional character played by Rob Lowe on the NBC comedy series Parks and Recreation. He began on the show as an Indiana State Auditor who visits the fictional city of Pawnee to help solve their crippling budget problems, and eventually becomes Pawnee's acting City Manager. Chris is an extremely positive person who is constantly upbeat and energetic. Scrupulously health-conscious, he exercises constantly and eats only healthy foods, hoping to be the first human to reach the age of 150.
Chris Traeger's assignment to slash Pawnee budgets occasionally put him at odds with protagonist Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler, pictured).
Chris was a romantic interest to Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones, pictured) for much of the third season.
