Comedian Maria Bamford (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

Maria Bamford is the kind of comedian who doesn’t slow down for the slow wing of the audience. She lays it all out there, full of twists and turns and the mind’s curlicues and says, in effect, hang on. Through religion and family, shame and shopping, sex and suicide and the mind’s dark side. She’s had her own issues there, bipolar, and just keeps going. With “Arrested Development,” Louis CK, her own albums. She’s the American Comedy Awards “ Best Club Comic, 2014.” And she’s with us.
