Michelle Wolf
On June 21, 1985, Michelle Wolf was born in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. She attended Hershey High School before going on to pursue her education at the College of William & Mary, a university in Virginia. These two institutions mark the formal educational path she followed before entering her professional career.
Wolf works as a comedian and actor, conducting her work in the English language. As a citizen of the United States, she has pursued these two professional roles — comedian and actor — within her career. Her work in both areas places her across the distinct but sometimes overlapping fields of comedic performance and acting.
The details of Wolf's background trace a path from Dauphin County through Hershey High School and then to the College of William & Mary, before her emergence as a comedian and actor. Her use of English as the language of her work situates her career within a specific linguistic context, and her dual roles as comedian and actor reflect the range of professional activity she has undertaken.
Quotes by Michelle Wolf
I don't want to alienate anybody. If you're making a joke about men and men are laughing at it, it's a good joke.
Very early on, I met this one comic who said if you're not doing stand-up every night, you're not doing it. And so I just kind of believed that and worked off that.
Comedy, in my opinion, is best when it's in the gray, and you're kind of pushing people's thoughts that they sort of had but never vocalized. And I think a joke is not good if someone says something, and immediately people are clapping because they're like, 'Yes! That is how I feel as well!'
I got a third-degree ankle sprain practicing long jump. I never fully recovered. That was my first heartbreak. I thought track was going to be something that was going to happen in my life. It never went in the direction I wanted it to, no matter how hard I tried.
There is only so many times you can say, 'Trump tweeted something that was bad.' That is not a joke to me.
I think Trump is terrible for comedy. A lot of people say he is great. He's not. You can't joke a joke.
If you are willing to say something about someone, you should be willing to say it on Twitter, to their face, whatever.
