Susie Essman

Susie Essman is, to my mind, one of comedy's most underrated forces. Playing the gloriously foul-mouthed Susie Greene on Curb Your Enthusiasm for over two decades takes more than attitude; it takes the sharp intelligence and warmth that let an abrasive character stay beloved. I love that she also voiced Mittens in Bolt, charming kids who'll never know her stand-up roots. As a comedian, actress, producer, and writer out of the Bronx, she's the kind of self-made, multi-hyphenate talent I find endlessly compelling. Authentic, fearless, and funny without apology, Essman is exactly the sort of performer I root for.
