Carmen Lynch    

Comedian & Actor Known for "Inside Amy Schumer" and "The Late Show with David Letterman"

Carmen Lynch is the offspring of a petite Spanish nurse and a tall American Naval officer. After moving 18 times and finally settling in Spain, Carmen began her performance career as a flamenco dancer.

Years later, Carmen majored in pre-med, and was well on her way to fulfilling her parent’s dreams, when, struck by an unaccountable ennui and strong gas pains, unexpectedly changed her major to Psychology and applied to the FBI. She was rejected by the FBI (she received the "skinny envelope") and soon after moved to NYC to pursue acting. But at 6 feet tall Carmen couldn't see eye to eye with any of her male leads.

Eventually for her determination and a love of basements, Carmen pursued stand up comedy and has now been seen on HBO's Aspen Comedy Festival, Comedy Central's Premium Blend and was a finalist on the first season of NBC's Last Comic Standing.

She has also appeared in several independent films and has contributed to Mad Magazine. She's a regular at Caroline's in New York City.
