Happy Birthday wishes go out to actress, comedienne, writer, and producer, Elizabeth Stamatina "Tina" Fey, who turns 43 years young today. Tina has a B.A. degree from the University of Virginia in drama. Tina is married to composer Jeff Richmond, who she dated for 7 years, and they have two children.

 

Tina started her career as a writer for "Saturday Night Live." She move to head writer and began making appearances in SNL skits.  Tina worked for SNL from 1997 - 2006.

 

 

In 2006, Tina wrote a pilot that later became 30 rock. Tina has been with the series ever since.  Tina has received seven Emmy Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, five Screen Actors Guild Awards, four Writers Guild Awards, four Writers Guild of America Awards, and has been nominated for a Grammy Award.  Tina is the youngest recipient of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.

 

I really liked Tina's impersonation of former Vice President nominee Sarah Palin.  Tina has also acted in four motion pictures.
