Whitney Cummings was born on September 4, 1982, in Washington, DC. She attended the University of Pennsylvania where she participated in several theater productions and graduated magna cum laude. After college, Cummings moved to Los Angeles.
Cummings' first gig was helping Ashton Kutcher catch celebrities acting a fool in Punk’d. She has also appeared on VH1’s Best Week Ever with Paul F. Tompkins and E! countdown shows. In an effort to make her big break, she was doing three stand up gigs a night and going to auditions in the morning. Then the break came. Cummings landed the role of one of Michelle Monaghan’s best friends in Made of Honor.
Last year, Variety named Cummings one of 10 Comics to Watch. The magazine particularly enjoyed Cummings’ self-deprecating humor. We are sure to see more of this hilarious woman!
