Natalie Walker is a performer and writer who sprang from the liquefied essence of the years Bernadette Peters dated Steve Martin. As a performer, she has been seen onstage at 54 Below, Joe's Pub, and Ars Nova and onscreen in Search Party; as a writer, she has done deep dives ranking Broadway theaters and going behind the scenes of the Teen Tony Awards for Vulture. She has combined these talents to build a following on Twitter @nwalks for her thread of self-written "auditions" for cliché women's roles in film. Natalieleerwalker.com
