Hysterically funny, whip-smart(are whips smart?) and painfully self-aware, there's nothing that doesn't sparkle with the Cathy Ladman spin.

Cathy tells all... at least most... her teenage romance with Jerry Seinfeld from Long Island to Israel and back again... demanding panel on The Tonight Show, facing off with Roseanne, and her struggle with anorexia, which has led to her most heart-wrenching, albeit hysterical work, yet.

Cathy made 9 appearances on The Tonight Show, 5 on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, had her own HBO "One Night Stand" comedy special, and was awarded the American Comedy Award for Best Female Stand Up Comic.

Film credits include, Charlie Wilson’s War, The Aristocrats, White Oleander, What Planet Are You From? My Fellow Americans, and Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead. Her TV roles include a recurring role on Pretty Little Liars, NCIS: LA, Mad Men, Brothers and Sisters, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Everybody Loves Raymond. She had a recurring role on Caroline in the City, and was a regular panelist on Politically Incorrect, and, was a repeat guest on Comedy Central classic, Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist.

Cathy did a successful run Off-Broadway in, The JAP Show: The Princesses of Comedy; she and HBO developed her solo show, Scaredypants, and she excerpted her new show, Does This Show Make Me Look Fat? for a TEDMED talk.

Funny and fabulous... we laughed... a lot. You will, too. Promise.

Did I mention I love her?!? Like crazy.
