Iliza Shlesinger is an award-winning comedian, actor, writer, producer and author, selling out theatres around the globe with a devoted fan base who are known for creating their own Iliza-inspired swag to wear to her shows.

Iliza has five Netflix stand up specials. She coined the term Elder Millennial in her eponymous 2018’s Elder Millennial, which is also the subject of Iliza Shlesinger: Over & Over, her “fan-u-mentary” giving fans an inside look into her life on tour. 

Her other specials are Unveiled (2019), Confirmed Kills (2016), Freezing Hot (2015) and War Paint(2013).  She’s preparing to tape her sixth special in June this year.  She wrote and starred in the Netflix Rom-Com movie Good On Paper and played opposite Mark Wahlberg in the #1 Netflix film Spenser Confidential. She also appeared in the critically acclaimed indie drama Pieces of a Woman with Vanessa Kirby. Other credits include, Instant Family, starring Wahlberg and Rose Byrne, and The Iliza Shlesinger Sketch Show, a comedy series she created and starred in for Netflix. 

In March 2020, in response to the pandemic, she and her husband, Chef and James Beard Award nominated author Noah Galuten, launched Don’t Panic Pantry as a way to encourage people to stay at home and flatten the curve. The fun, follow-along-at-home cooking show streamed live via Iliza’s Instagram and Facebook page with more than 250 episodes. It has been featured on the Today ShowThe Talk, and has been sponsored by companies like Le CreusetDansk and Bob’s Red MillThe Don’t Panic Pantry Cookbook will be released in January 2023. 

Iliza has completed her second book, All Things Aside. Her first book, Girl Logic: TheGenius and the Absurdity was a subversively funny collection of essays offering her unique perspective on women’s behavior. Her podcast, AIA: Ask Iliza Anything, is a fan favourite and features Iliza giving out her barefaced life advice to fans’ questions. She has guest hosted Jimmy Kimmel Live and previously hosted her own limited run late night talk show Truth & Iliza on Freeform. She is the only female and youngest comedian to hold the title of NBC’s Last Comic Standing

Iliza regularly supports a variety of causes including Team RubiconCystic FibrosisBest Friends Animal Society, various environmental causes, and has performed abroad several times with the USO.  She lives in Los Angeles, California with her husband Noah, their newborn daughter Sierra Mae and their Chinese rescue dog, Tian Fu.
