I live in New York. I am a stand up comic, writer and actor. You may have seen my writing on many reputable websites (The Huffington Post, Hello Giggles, xojane.com, The Hairpin, Splitsider, The FW, etc.). I also write crazy blogs about Game of Thrones, Magneto and Jeff Goldblum. I was formerly member of the PITtv House Team, Codswallop.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
A follow up
Yesterday I had my last Sketch 201 class at the UCB. I now feel bad about bitching about how no one in the class got my references because they all made a point yesterday about saying how much they loved my obscure references. “That’s why I come to class. To hear what bizarre references Meghan is going to make this week.”
I’ve never felt so universally accepted for being myself before.
Hi, come to this, or watch online. I’ll be there!
Go to this! I won’t be able to make it because of the class-that-shall-not-be-named, but go to it!
A lovely reader named Maureen sent me these images of some postcards from the original UCB Theatre on 22nd Street and I felt compelled to share them with you all! She writes -
“So, I was going through my box of high school pictures tonight, and came across these and figured you would appreciate them. These are postcards from the original UCB Theatre on 22nd Street. I started going there when I was sixteen years old, and I am thirty now, yikes!
I hope you are able to see the names on them, but these were the beginning days of some of the best comedians today- Seth Morris, Jake Fogelnest, the original 4, and Rob Corddry.”I love this and I am so excited that Maureen decided to send them on and allowed me to share them with you! You can follow Maureen on her blog, which follows her on her running adventures here.(My e-mail is always open and I love hearing from people, so whether you just want to say “hi” and shower me with compliments or send something interesting along, please feel free!)
