We killed

the rise of women in American comedy

As the more than 150 people interviewed for this riveting oral history make clear, women have always been funny. It?s just that every success has been called an exception and every failure an example of the rule. And as each generation of women has developed its own style of comedy, the coups of the previous era are washed away and a new set of challenges arises. But the result is the same: They kill. A chorus of creative voices and hilarious storytelling, We Killed is essential cultural and social history, and?as it should be!?great entertainment.
