Amy Schumer is quickly becoming the hottest star in the world of comedy, with her blend of wholesome, girl-next-door looks and edgy comedy. Amy is the creator, star and writer of "Inside Amy Schumer," her new Comedy Central television show. Amy is coming off her one-hour stand-up special, "Mostly Sex Stuff," which became Comedy Central's second-highest rated special of 2012. She was one of the featured comedians on Comedy Central's "Roast of Roseanne," following her breakout performance on the "Roast of Charlie Sheen." Amy was most recently on "Louie" and Season 2 of HBO's "Girls." Amy has appeared on "The Howard Stern Show," "Jimmy Kimmel Live," "Conan" and "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon." Amy was featured in Rolling Stone Magazine, The New York Times, Wall Street Journal and as Variety's "Top 10 Comics to Watch." She's also written articles for Cosmo Magazine to enormous reader response. Amy recurred on Season 3 of Adult Swim's "Delocated" and guest starred in the latest season of "Curb Your Enthusiasm." She recently filmed the feature "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World" starring Steve Carell and Keira Knightley and "Price Check," an independent feature opposite Parker Posey which premiered at Sundance Film Festival. Her album "Cutting" placed in the top 5 of the Billboard Charts and has been included on multiple Best Comedy Albums of the Year awards' lists. Amy made her network debut on NBC's "Last Comic Standing" and soon after co-starred on "30 Rock" and had her own "Comedy Central Presents" special. She co-hosted "Hoppus on Music" with Mark Hoppus of Blink 182 on Fuse and recently made her fourth appearance at the Montreal Comedy Festival.
