Sarah Pike Conger (July 24, 1843 – February 1932) was an American writer. She was married to American diplomat Edwin H. Conger and accompanied him on his postings as envoy and minister to Brazil (1890–93, 1897–98) and China (1898–1905). Pike Conger developed an interest in Chinese culture and maintained a collection of ethnographic artifacts. The couple survived the 1900 Siege of the International Legations, during the Boxer Rebellion, and afterwards remained in the legation quarter. Pike Conger met frequently with Empress Dowager Cixi, whom she considered a friend, and was criticized for this in the press as Cixi had supported the Boxers. After returning to the United States and the death of her husband, Pike Conger wrote a recollection of her time in China and a children's book about Chinese culture.
