Barbara's Comedian Bio
|
| Bio | Barbara may not have always been Barbara…but she has always been funny — even before she unveiled her memorable signature line at her first stand-up appearance in Stu Stuart’s Big Show at Seattle’s Comedy Underground in January 2005.
Barbara is all sugar and spice — everything G-rated nice — with an occasional puppy dog tail thrown in for old-time’s sake. Yes, she’s looked at love from both sides now, but her political humor is definitely blue-state without the blues. She is a six-foot tall teller of tall tales and short one-liners. She is a wide-screen stage presence, with a passion for ending narrow-mindedness.
In her brief stand-up career she has already performed with the likes of Cathy Sorbo, Denny Johnston, Brooks Macbeth, Ty Barnett, Chris Alpine, Amy Alpine, Auggie Smith, Duanne Goad, and Jen Kober. She has toured through New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Chicago, Milwaukee and Minneapolis. She has twice showcased at Judy Carter’s California Comedy Conference in Palm Springs. She was interviewed live in Hollywood in February 2007 by Kent Emmons on Comedy Countdown, a weekly show on XM Satellite’s National Lampoon Radio. At the same time, she auditioned for NBC’s Last Comic Standing.
Barbara is an experienced writer and journalist, currently writing blogs and technical articles for Microsoft and other high tech companies. She has been a newspaper reporter and computer magazine editor — an observer of history in the making. She is the only known journalist to interview Bill Gates as both a male and female reporter. | | Website | liftingthefog.com |

About me:
By day, I write seriously... for folks like Microsoft, Nintendo and Getty Images...
But by night, the truth comes out, and the fun begins on comedy stages all over the Puget Sound area (and yes, even Chicago, Palm Springs and Yakima once in a while!)
