Janet Varney

Janet Varney is pretty and great (not “pretty great” because she’s SUPER great). If you were just a normal person you would probably know her from Dinner and a Movie or Entourage. But since you’re probably a cool comedy nerd, you know her from co-founding SF Sketchfest or from Back on Topps or her improv or her work with Hard ‘n Phirm.
