La Chica del Tatuaje Encima del Culo

Amy Schumer took the American stand-up comedy scene by storm with her provocative, biting humor after finishing fourth on NBC's Last Comic Standing. Her success came after years on the stage at obscure New York nightclubs and exhausting tours. Uniquely caustic and sharp-tongued, her irreverent and scatological humor has reinvented open-mic comedy. In The Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo, which has been a number-one New York Times bestseller, Schumer's collection of vignettes detail her ascent to fame, full of challenges and setbacks, but also key moments in her life. She tells of her relationship with her manipulative and unstable mother, her father's sudden degenerative illness, her relationships--with lovers, but also with stuffed animals, her children (food, or perhaps wine), and phobias (gyms, strong and silent types). Schumer has starred in movies like Snatched, I Feel Pretty, and Trainwreck. She is the creator of Comedy Central's Emmy Award-winning Inside Amy Schumer.
