Biography:
Kristen Wiig planted her comedy roots with The Groundlings, like many SNL cast members before her. This training prepared her for her big break in 2003 playing Dr. Pat in the faux-reality show, "The Joe Schmo Show". From there, she laid relatively low until 2005 when she was cast half-way through the 31st season of Saturday Night Live as a featured player. It didn't take long for Kristen to become a prominent member of the cast; in 2008, she was featured in Entertainment Weekly's list of "15 Great Performances" for her various impersonations on SNL. This was followed in early 2009 with a place on the magazine's "25 Funniest Women in Hollywood" list. Later that year, she received her first Emmy nomination -- again, for her work on SNL. The future looks bright for this rising star.
