Maria Bamford
Maria Bamford is revered for her deeply personal and experimental comedy about
mental illness. She starred in the surreal, semi-autobiographical Netflix comedy
series Lady Dynamite, about a comedian who suffers a nervous breakdown, and is
the star of three unconventional hour-long stand-up specials: Weakness is the
Brand, Old Baby and Maria Bamford, the special, special, special! Maria was the
first female comic to have two half-hour Comedy Central Presents specials and
starred alongside Patton Oswalt, Zach Galifianakis and Brian Posehn in the
Comedy Central series The Comedians of Comedy and Netflix’s Comedians of
Comedy: The Movie. She also created and starred in the cult hit web series The
Maria Bamford Show, in which she plays all the characters.
Maria is often recognized for her prolific voiceover work, including characters on
Big Mouth, BoJack Horseman, Summer Camp Island, Adventure Time, Talking
Tom and Friends, Bob’s Burgers, Legend of Korra, Puss in Boots, CatDog and
PBS’s Emmy-winning series Word Girl. She also stars as Tilly Mulch in Team
Coco’s scripted podcast Frontier Tween. Maria played DeBrie Bardeaux on
Netflix’s Arrested Development and recurred on the ABC hit series Fresh off the
Boat. She is the 2014 winner of the American Comedy Award for Best Club Comic.
Maria’s late night appearances include CONAN, The Tonight Show, The Late Show
with Stephen Colbert and Late Night with Seth Meyers.
