Two years ago, Jill Twiss turned down her admission to law school,
left her hometown of Custer, South Dakota, and moved to New York City
to become a stand-up comedian. Needless to say, her parents were thrilled
that she had given up on the frivolous idea of becoming an attorney and
was instead focusing on something really secure like stand-up.
She has opened for Darryl Hammond at Caroline's Comedy Club and performed
at Madison Square Gardens in the finals of the Bud Light Ladies of Laughter
contest.
