Although stand-up comedy is often described as a ‘boys’ club\,’ the truth is that there have always been influential women on the scene. Alongside Jewish male comics like Groucho Marx\, Lenny Bruce\, Jack Benny\, and Jerry Seinfeld\, there were pioneering Jewish female stand-ups like Jean Carroll\, Joan Rivers\, Totie Fields\, and Sarah Silverman\, offering their inimitable insights on the experience of being a Jew—and a woman—in the United States. From tackling double standards to deflating stereotypes like the “Jewish American Princess\,” Jewish female stand-up comedians have made major contributions to the way that American audiences have seen Jewish women—and the way that Jewish women have seen themselves. \nPresented by Grace Overbeke\, assistant professor in the theatre department at Columbia College. Her academic focus is in comedy studies and has been published in Shofar: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies\, Theatre Topics\, Theatre Annual\, The New England Theatre Journal\, Theatre Survey\, Studies in American Humor\, and The Jewish Forward. She holds a BA in theatre and English from Wesleyan University and an MA and PhD. from Northwestern University in theatre and drama. \nThe Faye Sigman Woman of Valor Lecture is made possible by the generosity of the Taxman and Temkin families. \nThis is a hybrid event with both an in-person and virtual option. Free but registration required at https://wisconsin-edu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_MA66E_0MQU2q8Ftf05k99g#/registration \nCosponsored by UWM’s Departments of English and Women’s and Gender Studies; and programs in Digital Arts and Culture; Film Studies; and Journalism\, Advertising\, and Media Studies URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/the-many-mrs-maisels-the-history-of-jewish-female-stand-up-comedians/ LOCATION:UWM Golda Meir Library\, 4th Floor Conference Center\, 2311 East Hartford Avenue\, Milwaukee\, WI\, 53211\, United States CATEGORIES:Lectures Conferences and Symposiums,UWM Campus Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/wp-content/uploads/sites/255/2024/02/maisels.webp ORGANIZER;CN="Sam and Helen Stahl Center for Jewish Studies":MAILTO:cjsuwm@uwm.edu X-TRIBE-STATUS: GEO:43.0771478;-87.880293 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=UWM Golda Meir Library 4th Floor Conference Center 2311 East Hartford Avenue Milwaukee WI 53211 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=2311 East Hartford Avenue:geo:-87.880293,43.0771478 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20240306T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20240306T140000 DTSTAMP:20260608T070514 CREATED:20240304T215720Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240304T215757Z UID:10014406-1709730000-1709733600@uwm.edu SUMMARY:French Language Table DESCRIPTION:Practice language skills outside of the classroom with informal conversations.
