The Women's Comedy Brigade is the brainchild of comedian Jennifer Dziura. She got the idea for the name while in the Middle East and Africa in 2007 on a three-week tour entertaining the troops. Jennifer is perhaps best known for orchestrating the Williamsburg Spelling Bee, a real spelling bee for adults, as featured in the New York Times and in international press from German Public Radio to Tokyo Shimbun. Jennifer was filmed as an expert on "how to be witty" for VH-1's reality dating show "Can't Get a Date," has written for McSweeney's, appeared on the nationally syndicated Bob & Tom radio show, and is a contributor to The Idiot's Guide to Jokes and many other books. A Dartmouth graduate, Jennifer recently completed an East Coast tour of her solo show, "What Philosophy Majors Do After College" including sold-out shows in D.C. and Norfolk, and a show in April, 2008 at Dartmouth College. She writes a blog at www.jenisfamous.com
