Ellen Lang is a writer and comedian whose fast-paced, joke-dense style is informed by improv, and significantly improved by writing and editing. She recently completed her first season on a house team at Upright Citizens Brigade and is currently the Writers’ Assistant on an upcoming NBC series from Jimmy Fallon. Previous credits include Dead Funny: An All-Star Tribute to Joan Rivers (NBC) featuring Rachel Brosnahan, Aubrey Plaza, Nikki Glaser, and more; as well as Netflix’s first-ever production of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor in 2024. Her earlier jobs in entertainment include two years developing and producing variety specials at Done+Dusted (ask her about the time she had to source Starbucks Christmas cups in March) and ghostwriting for an ambitious food entrepreneur (ask her about her doomed treatment for ‘Master Chef in space’).
