Born in Egypt, raised in Alabama, and armed with a sharp wit and even sharper legal mind, Yasmin Elhady has mastered the art of juggling identities without dropping the ball (or her kids). She’s the lawyer who’ll argue you under the table by day and have you ugly-laughing about it by night. Yasmin turned to comedy to roast life’s absurdities with fearless takes on faith, culture, and motherhood. She’s appeared on stages across the US and Europe—including The Kennedy Center—and been featured on NBC, NPR, Netflix Is a Joke Radio, and Hulu’s Muslim Matchmaker.
