BIO

WHAT'S UP! It's-a me, Maria Randazzo, WGA Award-nominated writer, comedian, and actor. My most recent credit is as a staff writer on the Emmy-nominated Apple Orignal series The Problem with Jon Stewart. 
 

I'm a contributor for Reductress and you can catch me doing sketch and improv comedy

around NYC. From time to time I also perform as a drag king named Sal MarscarBone who's horny for sandwiches. 

I'm also host, creator, and producer of the Hey Dad podcast with my dad, Cleveland sports writer Bob Roberts-Randazzo. Listeners hear our weekly phone catch-ups where we debate the most important issues of the week such as, are Maria’s Tweets funny?  

​

Prior to NYC, I was an actor and writer with the Second City in Chicago. As a cast member and writer of Second City's "She The People," Chris Jones of the Chicago-Tribune called me a “very notable up-and-comer.” I also traveled the country performing with The Second City Touring Company and on the high seas with Second City aboard Norwegian Cruise Lines (AMA!). 
 

I'm a graduate of Loyola University Chicago, a native of Cleveland (come at me haters), and

climate change pending, will retire in Miami to the Golden Girls lifestyle of my dreams.
