As one of
the most popular stand-up comedians in the country today, PAULA
POUNDSTONE's humor knows no bounds and she continually goes
where no comedian has gone before: providing backstage commentary
to the '93 Emmy Awards telecast; adding humor to the pre- and
post-shows for the '94 Oscar Awards; serving as 'official correspondent'
for The Tonight Show during the '92 Presidential race.
Her ability to create humor on the spot is legendary and with
her casual air, impeccable timing and razor-sharp wit, she raises
stand-up to an art form.
As a performer, Paula enjoys a uniquely intimate rapport with
her audience. Her relaxed, comfortably humorous wanderings from
topic to topic turn each show into a brilliant stream-of-consciousness
experience, with no two performances being exactly alike.
Her off-kilter view of the world and her complete honesty strike
a receptive chord and have led to an impressive list of achievements:
two Cable ACE Awards (cable TV's highest honor), an American
Comedy Award as Best Female Stand-Up, a local Emmy award as
producer and star of a special piece for PBS station KCET's Life & Times, her own comedy series on both HBO and ABC
and numerous special appearances including headlining the prestigious
White House Correspondents Dinner in '92 (she's the first woman
ever invited to do so), the Comedy Hall of Fame Awards on NBC
in October '94 and the ABC specials A Gala For The President
at Ford's Theatre in both '94 and '95.
