Abbi Crutchfield is a writer and stand-up comedian based in New York City. She co-produces a popular stand-up and sketch comedy show in Brooklyn called The Living Room, where she creates characters and often does unexpected impersonations. As eloquent and poised as she is witty, she reaches a wide demographic with her straightforward humor, clean material and sharp delivery. She has been featured in Bust magazine, Radio Free NY, and in several online publications including Until Monday: Brooklyn (www.brooklyn.untilmonday.com). Abbi graduated from Georgetown University with a B.S. in Foreign Service. She followed her passion to write and perform stand-up comedy by moving to New York in 2005. Since then she has become a recognized name in the underground comedy scene, performing at Caroline’s, New York Comedy Club and many other popular venues. In her spare time, she volunteers at Postmark Café, a coffee shop owned and operated by her church. It sponsors uplifting events like The Living Room, co-produced by Abbi and her colleague Luke Thayer, that welcome all members of the community.
