If there was one word to describe Tammy Pescatelli (other than funny) it would be opportunistic. Since beginning her career in Cleveland in the early 90's, Pescatelli has made a habit of capitalizing when an opportunity presents itself. In 2000 she won the Bud Light Ladies of Laughter competition; a victory that helped earn her headliner status and landed her on "The Bob and Tom Show" - a nationally syndicated radio program with millions of listeners. By 2004 she had earned a spot as a finalist on Last Comic Standing 2, proving to the nation that she was a comic worth remembering.
Over the past half-decade, Pescatelli performed in her own "Comedy Central Presents," appeared twice on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," and even proved herself an avid Hold 'Em player on the GSN series "Poker Royale: Comedians vs. Pros." With her popularity consistently on the rise, she was voted best comedian in the 2010 Comedy Central Stand-up Showdown and is now starring in "A Stand Up Mother," her own reality TV series on WeTV. The series focuses on her shift from LA to rural Meadville, PA as well as her ability to juggle mother, wife, and stand-up responsibilities.
Watch her take the Helium stage February 9-10 and check out videos of her here, here, and here.
