Samantha Bee was born and raised in Toronto Canada and understands that, yes, it's very clean there. Having no appreciable skill set or professional aspirations, she turned to acting and found a safe harbor. She began her career by doing numerous commercial campaigns, and as a member of the all female sketch troupe The Atomic Fireballs. In 2003, she joined the cast of The Daily Show With Jon Stewart and now holds the title Most Senior Correspondent, having systematically eliminated all those before her. In addition to her work on The Daily Show, Samantha can be seen opposite her husband in the feature film 'Ham and Cheese', in the upcoming feature 'Underdog', and has most recently completed a single camera comedy pilot entitled 'Two Families' for the Fox network.

She is the recipient of the 2005 Canadian Comedy Award for 'Pretty Funny Female'. When she is not working she enjoys walking her toddler in circles around her tiny apartment and correcting spelling errors on menus.
