Sarah Silverman
Sarah Silverman was dubbed “the most outrageously funny woman alive,” by Rolling Stone. She is as versatile as they come; her repertoire includes everything from stand-up comedy, to film and television, to online videos. Her show, The Sarah Silverman Program, launched on Comedy Central in 2007 scoring the highest ratings for a new show in three years.
Sarah grew up in New Hampshire and attended New York University. In 1993 she joined Saturday Night Live as a writer and feature performer and has not stopped working since.
Laura Silverman
Named one of the Top 100 People of 2008 by USA Today, Laura Silverman first caught the attention of tv viewers with her memorable vocal performance as the droll receptionist on the animated sitcom Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist. Film credits include Half Baked, State and Main and Sarah Silverman: Jesus Is Magic, and she is a series regular on The Sarah Silverman Program. Silverman performs live comedy and original music regularly in Los Angeles and has a degree in Fine Arts from Tufts University.
Lizz Winstead
As a co-creator and former head writer of Comedy Central's The Daily Show, and co-founder of Air America Radio, Lizz Winstead has emerged as a critically acclaimed political writer and producer. Winstead brought her political wit to The Daily Show as a Correspondent and later to the radio waves co-hosting Unfiltered, Air America Radio's mid morning show.
