Born in Virginia in 1964, comedian and actress Wanda Sykes started out
doing stand-up on the road. She went on to make numerous appearances on
the big and small screens, and won Emmy nominations for her own stand-up
special. In 2009, she brought her intelligent, political humor to the
White House, becoming the first African-American woman, and first openly
gay comedian, to perform at the White House Correspondents' Association
Dinner. Since then, Sykes has appeared on such shows as Black-ish and Alpha House.
