Amy Sedaris
Highest Rated: 99% My Life as a Zucchini (2016)
Lowest Rated: 5% Old Dogs (2009)
Birthday: Mar 29, 1961
Birthplace: Endicott, New York, USA
Like many other great comic talents, writer/actress/author Amy Sedaris honed her skills at Chicago's famed Second City Theater before making her mark as a comedienne. Her bizarre role on Comedy Central's cult favorite, "Strangers with Candy" (1999-2000) became the defining role of her career. Although many of her other roles demonstrated her range and allowed her to "dial down the crazy" a bit, her "Candy" character of Jerri Blank best exemplified her own eccentric personality and endeared her to the masses by its sheer oddity.
