Emily Knapp is a writer and comedian living in Colorado. They’re originally from Chicago, but fled west because they really like seeing the sun in February. 

They’ve written shows, performed, and studied at The Second City, iO, The Annoyance Theatre, and The Grafenberg Theatre. Their writing has been featured in The Onion, fifth wheel press, The Offing, Button Poetry, The Rebis, 5280 Magazine, McSweeney’s, The Belladonna Comedy, Slackjaw, Weekly Humorist, Points in Case, Little Old Lady Comedy, and other places on the internet. Their poetry has also been nominated for Best of the Net.

They currently reside in Denver, but you can find them in the mountains writing, hiking, running, or skiing. If they’re not doing any of that, they’re 100% eating tacos.
