She's an absolute joy! Joy Behar is among today's leading comic talents. Whether mixing with audiences or interviewing politicians and artists, she dives into absurd juxtapositions, her aim being not to sneer, but to uncover life's absurdities. Behar originally began a career in the teaching field. She then set out to pursue comedy professionally and immediately received bookings from famous New York clubs such as Catch a Rising Star and Caroline's. Behar went on to win three MAC awards and a CableACE Award. On television, Joy starred in her own cable special and was a regular on the series, "Baby Boom," as well as the pilot, "The Rock." Other appearances include the voice of a hilariously neurotic patient on "Dr. Katz," for which she won the CableACE. She has been a frequent member of the discussion panel of the critically acclaimed "Politically Incorrect." Joy Behar also served as correspondent for Comedy Central, covering the Democratic NationalConvention. She hosted a popular call-in radio show on WABC for three years, where she discussed politics with a deadly humorous bent. She has also appeared in such films as "Cookie" with Peter Falk and Renee Taylor, and Joe Bologna's "Love Is All There Is," "This Is My Life" directed by Nora Ephron and in Woody Allen's "Manhattan Murder Mystery." Joy is currently co-hosting the hugely popular "The View" on ABC. She still makes time to perform her hilarious stand-up material. Great act!
