BIO

BETSY CARMICHAEL, "the First Lady of BINGO” has dedicated her life to spreading the word of BINGO! From her humble beginnings, as the daughter of a BINGO caller in Buffalo, N.Y., Betsy has become an international BINGO icon.

Betsy Carmichael’s Late Nite BINGO (conceived and written by Joey Bucheker and Mary Kate O’Connell) premiered at O’Connell & Company in Buffalo, NY to positive reviews and sold out audiences leading to an extension and encore run. The show was retitled Betsy Carmichael’s BINGO Palace and taken on the road to playing cities such as Chicago, Pittsburgh and Providence. A wildly successful sequel, The Betsy Carmichael Christmas Special was also launched to rave reviews.

Betsy has made numerous television appearances including the game show, “Bragging Rights”. She also has been a cast member of Buffalo’s longest running show Diva by Diva.
