An actress who built her name on television ensembles before headlining her own films — Trudy Campbell on Mad Men, then Annie Edison on the sitcom Community, and later Ruth Wilder in Netflix's wrestling comedy GLOW, which brought her Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild nominations. She voiced Diane Nguyen across six seasons of BoJack Horseman and has written, produced, and starred in her own films, including Horse Girl and Somebody I Used to Know, moving from performer to author of her own material.
