Reina Valdez (sometimes credited as Rena Valdez; born December 1890) was a silent film actress active in Hollywood in the 1910s.

Although some publicity reports claimed she was born and raised in Mexico, she was a native of Springfield, Massachusetts, where she grew up. Later, she moved to New York City to pursue an acting career. After a few appearances on Broadway, she eventually went to Los Angeles, where she worked for a number of film companies over the course of her short career, including the Santa Barbara Motion Picture Company, the New York Motion Picture Company, and Essanay. Little is known about her life before and after her film career. It is likely that "Reina Valdez" was her stage name.
