Details
Imagine a truth-telling, hilarious, bold lesbian Barbie and a picture of Suzanne Westenhoefer comes into focus. There’s been nothing in her closet but her clothes since 1990 when she burst onto the comedy scene (on a dare, nonetheless).
With her platinum locks, immaculate makeup and chicest blazer, Suzanne personified 1990s lesbian chic when appeared on Sally Jesse Raphael’s “Breaking the Lesbian Stereotype” episode.
She has been breaking through barriers from being the first lesbian comedian with an HBO comedy special to the first lesbian comedian to perform on “Late Night with David Letterman” and all points in between.
The girl who grew up on the wrong side of Amish country has been advocating for LGBT rights, women’s rights and choice, and other causes since the 1980s.
Suzanne’s longtime passion for couponing and stockpiling toiletries paid off as she supplied her block with toilet paper during COVID’s darkest days. Yes, she saved their asses.
It doesn’t matter whether you are in line for a TSA screening or in a sold out auditorium, Suzanne will not stop until she has your rolling with laughter. Nothing is off limits to her. Every show is an off-the-cuff, unscripted laugh riot.
