Janeane Garofalo

Born: Sep 28, 1964

Janeane, the petite woman with the acerbic wit, was born in Newton,
New Jersey, in 1964, and had many jobs before breaking into show
biz. She worked as a bike messenger, a shoe salesperson (no doubt
with Al Bundy's disposition), waitress and temp secretary. Watching
David Letterman on TV inspired her to write comedy, and by 1985 she
was doing standup comedy. As such, Janeane has become a cult
figure, giving a voice to a generation, venting her frustration at
TV, dating, relationships, life in general and anything that ticks
her off in particular. Janeane did sketches on the Ben Stiller show
in 1992 (an Emmy winning, but canceled show). She would continue to
collaborate with Ben Stiller in future projects. Janeane received 2
Emmy nominations for her work on the Larry Sanders show (1992),
developing her signature character: a smart, cynical woman with a
razor wit. She was not happy with her Saturday Night Live (1994)
stint, and was vocal about it (of course). Transferring her persona
from TV to the big screen, she moved on to movies, basically
playing the character she had defined for herself. In "Romy and
Michele's High School Reunion" (1997) she portrayed a smart,
cynical, successful businesswomen with a razor wit, and this time
with swear words (in the movie she had developed a brand of
cigarettes with fast-burning paper, for the gal on the go; in real
life it is alleged she smokes Marlboros). Janeane continues to work
in TV and movies, often collaborating with Ben Stiller in a number
of movies like "Mystery Men" (1999), his easygoing style being a
counterpoint to her caustic nature. Fans love Janeane.
