Laura Kightlinger
A tough talking, always hilarious stand-up comedienne and writer, Laura Kightlinger was always kooky personified. Formerly best known as the one-time girlfriend of manic comic Jack Black, the brunette beauty first perfected her defining deadpan delivery in Boston comedy clubs circa the early 1990s before finding her true calling - not on stage holding a mic; but armed with pen and paper. A prolific and respected writer, Kightlinger earned her comic stripes writing for "Saturday Night Live" (NBC 1975- ), "Will & Grace" (NBC 1998-2006) and "Roseanne" (ABC 1988-1997), before finally getting recognized for her performing talents as well, by playing the lead in the critically acclaimed sitcom, "The Minor Accomplishments of Jackie Woodman" (IFC, 2006-07).
