Gabrielle Birchak loves comedy writing, political satire, Girl Scout Cookies and Chianti wine ... all at once.

Birchak grew up in Denver, CO , and had her prose published when she was 10 years old. She then migrated into comedy sketch writing – but that didn’t pan out because when she sent her stuff to Lorne Michaels, she forgot to include a SASE.

While living in Denver, CO , Birchak worked as an actress and jazz vocalist. The work was so good, that fame went to her head. She was a big fish in a little pond. You get the idea. So, she took her big head filled with delusions of fame and grandeur and moved to Los Angeles, CA . After a heaping dose of reality, Birchak continued to write while going to work in the recording studios. Sadly, A&M Studios had no need for a comedy writer. Go figure.

Birchak then ventured into college where she studied journalism, English, physics, and chemistry. (Unbelievably, this is no joke.) Even though she tried to bribe her counselor with pole dancing, he still wouldn’t let her Quadruple Major. That and he said the pole kept chafing him. After college, Birchak worked in media and public relations for organizations that included NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Space Frontier Foundation. As a media relations representative her work appeared in WIRED Magazine, Los Angeles Times, Pasadena Star News, Science Daily, Earth Science World, and many others. There was no pole dancing involved.

When she's not building rockets or saving lives, Birchak enjoys writing. She is currently working on several books, including a group of children’s books called The Bugaboo Series, a science fiction trilogy and a screenplay about her father (he is much funnier than her).

She currently lives in northern Virginia and performs stand-up in the Washington DC area, as well as sit-down in her home studio. She will write something funny for you for a million dollars ... or a box of cookies, whichever comes first. For more information, please visit her Web site. Oh, wait, you're here already.

She runs a PR business called Einstein Communications LLC, a production company (i.e. her husband, a green screen and Vegas software) called Einstein Productions, a house full of screaming children and a cat named Einstein (who horks daily).
