Her résumé includes three comedy specials on HBO, five comedy albums, multiple television roles, and two books, “There Is Nothing in This Book That I Meant to Say” and “The Totally Unscientific Study of the Search for Human Happiness,” which was a semifinalist for the Thurber Prize for American Humor.
