If Ray Romano and Roseanne Barr had a baby, she would grow up to be Stephanie Blum. A Brooklyn native and former school psychologist, she became addicted to comedy after winning New York's Funniest Teacher contest in 1996.

Stephanie took first-prize in the 2002 Ladies of Laughter Funniest Female competition at Madison Square Garden. (Nine minute tape is included in press kit.) She was then chosen by HBO's US Comedy Arts Festival to be their 2003 "Breakout Performer." Then, on April 30, 2003, Stephanie won Star Search on CBS-TV. Most recently, she was invited to perform at the Mohegan Sun Casino on Friday, June 27th, 2003.
Stephanie Blum is the 'apathetic mom next door' whose trademark laziness and procrastination is sarcastic, hilarious and universally adored by audiences. Star of Catskills- On-Broadway and Dean of the Friars Club, Freddie Roman says, "She's spectacular...her material is brilliant and original."

Stephanie has performed at Carolines, The Comic Strip, Stand Up New York, Gotham Comedy Club, Governors and many others. She was chosen for the Toyota Comedy Festival, Boston Comedy Festival and the New England Comedy Festival. You may have seen her recent appearance on FOX's Good Day NY.
