Tina Fey
Writer, producer and actress Tina Fey is a bona fide trailblazer. She was the first female Head Writer at Saturday Night Live, the person responsible for the first all-female Weekend Update pairing on Saturday Night Live (herself and Amy Poehler as co-anchors), and she was the youngest recipient of the Mark Twin Prize For American Humour.
She entered the comedic history books as having created the perfect, most critically acclaimed impression of Sarah Palin, ever performed. She also created 30 Rock – a show that earned 225 award nominations and 72 award wins in 7 years, and re-booted the career of Alec Baldwin.
Having added “Golden Globe Co-Host” to her resume, twice, Fey is continuing to divide her time between film and TV – appearing in This Is Where I Leave You this fall, starring in and producing The Nest, and serving as executive producer on forthcoming TV shows, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and Cabot College.
