In We Killed, Yael Kohen assembles America's most prominent comediennesalong with the writers, producers, and nightclub owners in their orbitto piece together the rise of women in American comedy. Beginning with the emergence of Phyllis Diller and Joan Rivers in the fifties, and moving forward to the edgy intelligence of Elaine May and Lily Tomlin on to the toughass standups who would take SNL by storm, Kohen chronicles the false starts, backslides, and triumphs of female comedians. With a chorus of more than one hundred creative voices, We Killed takes us backstage to tell the story of the revolution that brought us Tina Fey, Sarah Silverman, and Chelsea Handlerand a world where women can be smart, attractive, sexually confident, and flatout funny.
