Paula Poundstone Biography

Paula Poundstone is famous for her razor-sharp wit and spontaneity. Paula is so quick and unassuming that audience members at her live shows often leave complaining that their cheeks hurt from laughter and debating whether the random people she talked to were plants. Paula grew up in Sudbury Massachusetts and by the time she was 19 was traveling on a Greyhound bus across the country -- stopping in at open mic nights at comedy clubs as she went. In 1979 Paula began nurturing her standup comedy talent as part of the Boston comedy scene and then moved to San Francisco where she continued to flourish. By 1990 she'd relocated to Los Angeles and had starred in several comedy specials for HBO as well as appeared on Saturday Night Live when friend and mentor Robin Williams hosted the show.
