LAURA HANKIN
Some favorite (shorter) writing clips:
-

McSweeney's: My Husband, Senator Ted Cruz, Is Just A Regular Guy (named an end of the year favorite by McSweeney's editor Christopher Monks!)
I also write songs, like this one about my indoor book tour for Penguin Random House! And the comedy videos I make with my musical duo, Feminarchy, have been featured on Funny or Die, The Huffington Post, The New York Times, and more.
As a performer, I've been in movies (While We're Young), acted in plays and musicals regionally and off-Broadway, sung with Karen O, and played a five-year-old multiple times. I've also read my own audiobooks. (My great recording weakness? My stomach rumbles so loudly that the microphone picks it up.) Full performance resume available upon request.
