On May 2nd, comedian Iliza achieved a lifelong goal when she launched “Truth & Iliza,” her very own late night talk show on Freeform (formerly ABC Family). The self styled talk show is a cross between social commentary, politics, pop culture and Iliza’s specific brand of feminism. In November 2017, she’ll publish her first book Girl Logic through Weinstein Books. Originally from Dallas, Iliza moved to Los Angeles after graduating from Emerson College. She is the only female and youngest comedian to hold the title of NBC’s Last Comic Standing.

Iliza’s follow-up, Freezing Hot, a Netflix Original Comedy Special, sealed her title as one of the hottest touring acts in America, with Esquire Magazine listing her as one of the top working comedians today. Iliza premiered her Netflix specials, Confirmed Kills in 2016 and Elder Millennial in 2018. Iliza’s stand-up credentials also include headlining the coveted Montreal Just For Laughs Festival and The New York Comedy Festival.Iliza was recently featured in Elle’s “Women in Comedy” issue and her television credits include multiple appearances on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,” “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” “The Today Show,” as well as hosting 230 episodes for the CBS syndicated show “Excused” and the TBS show “Separation Anxiety.”
