Upon graduating from Arundel High School in 1982, Sykes continued her education at Hampton University, a historically black institution in Hampton, Virginia, and earned a degree in marketing there in 1986. She immediately secured a job as a procurement officer for the National Security Agency (NSA) but quickly realized that her career did not lie in a government office. In 1987 she went on stage for the first time, doing a stand-up routine in a talent contest in Washington. Although she did not win, "a light went on" and she saw her destiny. That her second outing was a complete failure made her understand that pursuing a career in entertainment would be challenging, but, she stated, "It gave me a sense of how much I wanted to do it." While developing her skills at stand-up on nights and weekends, Sykes retained her job at the NSA until 1992, when she moved to New York to work on the comedy circuit there.

    Kirsten Leng Office: South College W417 WGSS 395F-01 Office Hours: by appointment Mon: Online; Wed 2:30-3:45pm Email:[email protected] Classroom: South College W205 FEMINISM, COMEDY, AND HUMOR Fall 2019 “Comedians who insist that…funny is funny and comedy should be able to challenge anything and be an ‘equal opportunity offender’—sure, but there’s laughter and there’s laughter…If comedy is going to be taken as an art form…it has to be able to be criticized. You can’t just say your reaction as an audience is either to laugh or shut up and that’s the only thing you can do.” --Glen Weldon, “NPR: Pop Culture Happy Hour Podcast,” 19 December 2014 **Please Note: This syllabus is a dense document, but contains almost everything you need to know about the class (but were afraid to ask!) It is your contract, guidebook, ultimate resource. When you have a question, consult the syllabus first before contacting the instructor.** ​ ​ Course Description The popularity of shows like “Broad City” and the clout of performers such as Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, and Wanda Sykes have arguably put to rest the old stereotype that women aren't funny. More importantly, they have all shown that comedy and humor can be vehicles for feminist messages. In so doing, they have built upon a legacy established by performers, writers, directors, and activists extending back to feminism's "first wave." In this course, we will examine the intersections of feminism, comedy, and humor, and will explore questions such as: In what ways are comedy and humor gendered? What roles do race, class, and sexuality play? Why have feminists, and women more generally, been seen as inherently unfunny? How have feminists used humor and comedy for political ends? We will also broadly consider the ethics, politics, and social and cultural purposes of comedy and humor.

I would also like to thank my professors at Sarah Lawrence and the Sarah Lawrence community at large. Abstract What if the real you is just a performance? What if the way you laugh, dance, or even speak is a learned behavior? That is, “what if” is a reality. Gender is performative, but can a gendered performance be layered onto an onstage one? This thesis considers how comediennes of today like Wanda Sykes and Tina Fey navigate gendered performances (and well as other social constructions like race, and class) while creating an onstage persona.

(“KEW MEDIA,” “KEW” or the “Company”) (TSX:KEW and KEW.WT), today announced it will be distributing the upcoming documentary Laurel Canyon from director Alison Ellwood (History of the Eagles). KMD launched sales for the title at the MIPTV international television market and will be showcasing the film at the Cannes Film Festival thereafter. Laurel Canyon will pull back the curtain on a mythical world and provide an up-close look at the lives of the musicians who inhabited it. Through a wealth of rare and newly unearthed footage and audio recordings, the documentary will feature an intimate portrait of the artists who created a music revolution. Celebrating the music of Linda Ronstadt, Joni Mitchell, The Doors, the Mamas and the Papas, The Byrds, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Neil Young, Eagles, Jackson Browne, Frank Zappa and more, the film takes us back to a time when a rustic canyon in the heart of Los Angeles became a musical petri dish. Laurel Canyon is being executive produced by Frank Marshall, The Kennedy/Marshall Company; Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey, Amblin Television; Craig Kallman and Mark Pinkus, Warner Music Group; Alex Gibney, Stacey Offman and Richard Perello, Jigsaw Productions; and Jeff Pollack.
