Bossypants

Labels: , , , ,
Bossypants by Tina Fey

SNL and 30 Rock star, writer and producer Tina Fey is as smart and irreverent as she is funny. This memoir gives an inside look at the improv comedy incubator Second City, developing material for Saturday Night Live, and how Fey and her contemporaries broke through the glass ceiling of comedy.*
Here in a quick engaging read is an honest tongue-in-cheek and witty look at success, motherhood, TV, sexism, and lots of famous people you may have been wondering about. A few classic scripts are included, notably the Sarah Palin/Hillary Clinton sketch that Fey and Amy Poehler did in the 2008 campaign season.

* "Women just aren't funny."--every male producer/director from the beginning of time.

    I listened to the audiobook version of this, narrated by Tina Fey, and enjoyed it so much I am going to check out 30 Rock.
