Early life


Glaser was born on June 1, 1984, in Cincinnati, Ohio, the daughter of Julie E. (née Burke) and Edward J. Glaser.[2][3] She has one sibling, a younger sister named Lauren.[4] She has German and Irish ancestry.[2] Glaser spent most of her childhood in St. Louis, Missouri.[5] She graduated from Kirkwood High School and briefly attended the University of Colorado Boulder[6] before transferring to, and graduating from, the University of Kansas with a degree in English Literature.[7]


Career



Stand-up comedy


Glaser started performing stand-up at age 18. Her first jokes were written in college. She recalled this in an interview with Rich Tupica in Revue magazine: "I remember it. I was a freshman in college and everyone in my dorm took over the cafeteria as like a study hall. I went in there and instead of studying I just looked at them, judged them and tried to think, 'What would Sarah Silverman say about these people?' I didn't know how to write jokes—I just knew the stand-ups I knew. I wrote from the perspective of my favorite stand-ups because I didn't know what my perspective was yet."[8]

Since then, Glaser performed stand-up on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Conan, and two seasons of the reality series Last Comic Standing.[9]

Her first feature stand-up special, Perfect, was on Comedy Central on April 9, 2016. Her second special, Bangin', premiered on Netflix on October 1, 2019.
