ABOUT ANA GASTEYER
Ana Gasteyer is perhaps best known for her incomparable work on Saturday Night Live. During her six-year stint, she created some of the most iconic SNL characters, including middle school music teacher Bobbie Moughan-Culp, NPR radio host Margaret Jo, Lilith Fair poetess Cinder Calhoun, as well as spot-on impressions of Martha Stewart, Celine Dion, and Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Gasteyer is also a highly accomplished singer and songwriter. On stage, Gasteyer has starred on Broadway in Wicked as Elphaba, The Rocky Horror Show, and Tony nominated shows The Royal Family and Three Penny Opera, and she originated the role of Debra in David Lindsay-Abaire's Kimberly Akimbo at MTC.
Prior to joining SNL, Gasteyer attended Northwestern University and honed her comedy skills at The Groundlings, the famed Los Angeles improv-sketch comedy group. Gasteyer resides in the East coast with her husband, children, and rescue pup, Gloria.
