Description
ANA GASTEYER is perhaps best known for her incomparable work on Saturday Night Live. During her six-year stint, she created some of the most iconic SNL characters, including middle school music teacher Bobbie Moughan-Culp, NPR radio host Margaret Jo, Lilith Fair poetess Cinder Calhoun, as well as spot-on impressions of Martha Stewart, Celine Dion and Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Additionally, Gasteyer headlines the upcoming NBC comedy series AMERICAN AUTO from executive producer Justin Spitzer (SUPERSTORE, THE OFFICE), premiering in early 2022. AMERICAN AUTO, is set in Detroit and focuses on Payne Motors, where shaking things up is the new CEO (Gasteyer), whose leadership, experience and savvy is only slightly offset by her complete lack of knowledge about cars.
Gasteyer, is also a highly accomplished singer and songwriter. This winter she'll embark on a Christmas tour in support of Sugar and Booze, her recent album of seasonal favorites and holiday originals which topped numerous "Best Holiday Album" lists. Called "an uproarious homage to Christmas albums of old" by Billboard and "the magical love child of Astrud Gilberto and Lucille Ball — an unexpectedly perfect combination" by BUST Magazine, the album was released to rave reviews. As said by the LA Times, "'Were Frank, Dino or Sammy still with us, any or all would pounce on the delightfully swaggering title track" and "Saturday Night Live' alumna Gasteyer puts her considerable vocal chops to work here to marvelous effect on this ebullient big-band jazz effort."
Inspired by the music from Sugar and Booze, Gasteyer produced an 8 episode original series for Audible, which she co-wrote with Mona Mansour. The series was voiced by Gasteyer, Maya Rudolph, Patti Lupone and Rachel Dratch among others.
Gasteyer's first album, I'm Hip received equally rapturous reviews. She has toured around the country with her "Happy Jazz" act since 2016 and had a two-week residency at the famed Cafe Carlyle of which Stephen Holden of the New York Times raved about Gasteyer's comedic stories and her "strong singing voice that can stir up a storm."
Previously, on the big screen Gasteyer could be seen in Amy Poehler's directorial debut, WINE COUNTRY opposite her SNL friends and colleagues and in Clea Duvall's HAPPIEST SEASON, which she costared opposite Kristen Stewart, Aubrey Plaza and Victor Garber. On the small screen, Gasteyer recurred on the hit ABC series THE GOLDBERGS. Additional notable credits include the acclaimed comedy hits LADY DYNAMITE from Netflix, TBS' PEOPLE OF EARTH, ABC's SUBURGATORY and HBO's CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM.
Gasteyer was able to marry her phenomenal vocal talents with her acting skills in two of Fox's live musicals A CHRISTMAS STORY and the iconic musical GREASE as well as Showtime's REEFER MADNESS. She also dazzled on the enormous hit Fox musical series THE MASKED SINGER as fan favorite, The Tree.
