What 37-year old comedian stars in the new Comedy Central series, "The Comedians of Comedy Tour" (as well as in the independent film of the same title out on NETFLIX), is in Variety's TOP TEN COMICS TO WATCH, has been the talk of Montreal, Edinburgh, Aspen, Kilkenny and Melbourne Comedy Festivals and was voted by Comedy Central viewers as one of their Top Ten Favorite Comics?
ME! MARIA BAMFORD! That's who, sweetpeas!
Now I will go on about myself in the 3rd person!
Maria started her performing arts career in Duluth, Minnesota at the age of 11 where she starred in the Chester Park Elementary production of "How the West Was REALLY Won!" (Conservative message that didn't include the perspective of indigenous nations). A short 24 years of self-discovery and secretarial work later, look at her now! She is certainly on some kind of predestined journey!

She also performs comedic voiceovers! She is a series regular on the animated Nickelodeon series' CatDog and BARNYARD and has been a guest star on Oxygen series Hey Monie!, the Cartoon Network's Home Movies and played a spider in Charlotte's Web II (a straight-to-video deal.)
And recently, Maria landed a role as "The Neurotic Farm Wife" in the upcoming animated feature by Steve Odekerk, BARNYARD . Some of her other credits include, STUART LITTLE 2 (small part), LUCKY NUMBERS with John Travolta (pretty big part), Dharma and Greg (very small part) and The Trouble with Normal (medium-sized part). Yeah, pretty awesome, huh?
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone who is friendly, laughs at my jokes (or at least most of them) and is on myspace.
