Julia Sweeney

Biography

Julia Sweeney is an American actress and comedian who was born in Spokane, Washington, and got her start in improvisational comedy with the Groundlings, where she developed characters such as the androgynous Pat. She joined Saturday Night Live in 1990, first as a featured player and then as a regular, remaining four seasons through 1994. Her Pat sketches later became a feature film that failed with critics and at the box office. She wrote and starred in the one-woman show God Said Ha!, which reached Broadway and earned a Grammy nomination for its recording, and she directed the 1998 film version, which won the Golden Space Needle Award. Her films include Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990), Vegas Vacation (1997), Stuart Little (1999), Whatever It Takes (2000), Clockstoppers (2002) and Monsters University (2013). She voiced Wanda MacPherson in Baby Blues, was a regular on George and Leo and Maybe It's Me, and had a recurring role on Frasier.
