Early life and background

Schumer was born on June 1, 1981, on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York City, New York,[1][2] to Sandra Jane (née Jones) and Gordon David Schumer, who owned a baby-furniture company.[2][3][4] Schumer's father was born to a Jewish family from Ukraine.[5][6] She is a second cousin of U.S. Senator and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.[7][8][9] Her mother, who is from a Protestant background and has deep New England roots, converted to Judaism before her marriage.[4][10][11] Schumer was raised Jewish and says she had to deal with antisemitism as a child.[12][13][14] Her mother's ancestry included Puritans in the 17th-century English colony of Massachusetts. As a guest on Finding Your Roots in 2017, Schumer learned that in 1704, three children from her ancestor Thomas Tarbell's family were captured at Groton, Massachusetts, in a French-Abenaki raid and taken to Montreal. The girl was ransomed by a French-Canadian family and ultimately joined a French Catholic convent; the two boys were each adopted by Mohawk families at Kahnawake and became thoroughly assimilated. They married Mohawk women and some of their descendants became chiefs.[15] There are still Mohawk by the surname Tarbell in Kahnawake and Akwesasne, another village reserve on the St. Lawrence River founded by the brothers.

Through the success of her father's furniture company in Manhattan, Schumer's household was wealthy during her early years.[16] When she was nine years old, her father's business failed and he went bankrupt, and either then[7] or when she was 12[17] (sources differ), her father was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Some time afterward, her parents divorced.[7] Moving to Long Island with her mother, Schumer lived in Rockville Centre, New York, and attended South Side High School.[18][15] She was voted both "Class Clown" and "Teacher's Worst Nightmare" upon graduation in 1999.[19] She attended the Hebrew school of the Central Synagogue of Nassau County, a Reform synagogue in Rockville Centre, on whose board her mother served.[20][21] Schumer moved near Baltimore, Maryland, after high school when she attended Towson University; she graduated with a degree in theater in 2003.[19][22] She returned to New York City after college, where she studied at the William Esper Studio[23] for two years and worked as a bartender and a waitress.[19] She also for a period relocated to Santa Barbara, California (with a boyfriend she characterized as abusive),[24] where she worked as a pedicab driver.[25] She has a younger sister, Kim Caramele, who is a comedy writer and a producer,[22][26] and a half-brother, Jason Stein,[27] who is a musician in Chicago, Illinois.[28][29]

After graduating with a degree in theater from Towson University in 2003 and moving to New York City, Schumer portrayed a young woman diagnosed with breast cancer in the Off-Off-Broadway black comedy Keeping Abreast.[19] She started doing stand-up comedy on June 1, 2004, when she first performed at Gotham Comedy Club.[30] In 2007, she recorded a Live at Gotham episode for Comedy Central before appearing on Last Comic Standing; she later recalled that she thought of the episode as her "big break".[31] Rebounding from an unsuccessful audition for an earlier season,[32] she advanced to the finals of the fifth season of the NBC reality television talent show Last Comic Standing and placed fourth.[30] Schumer said in April 2011, "Last Comic was totally fun. I had a great time because there was no pressure on me; I had been doing stand-up around two years. I wasn't supposed to do well. So every time I advanced it was a happy surprise. I kept it honest on the show and it served me well."[33]

Schumer co-starred in the Comedy Central reality show Reality Bites Back in 2008.[34] In 2009, she appeared in an advertising campaign for Butterfinger.[35] Schumer was a recurring guest on Fox News late-night program Red Eye w/ Greg Gutfeld between 2007 and 2012.

I like tackling the stuff nobody else talks about, like the darkest, most serious thing about yourself. I talk about life and sex and personal stories and stuff everybody can relate to, and some can't."[41]

She acted in three films in 2012: the independent comedy Price Check, the comedy-drama Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, and the independent comedy Sleepwalk with Me.[42] Schumer also appeared on The Comedy Central Roast of Charlie Sheen in September 2011, and The Comedy Central Roast of Roseanne Barr in August 2012. In June 2012, Schumer began work on a sketch comedy series for Comedy Central. The show included single-camera vignettes of Schumer playing "heightened versions" of herself. The vignettes are linked together with footage of Schumer's stand-up.[43] The show, Inside Amy Schumer, premiered on Comedy Central on April 30, 2013. Inside Amy Schumer was picked up for a second season that began in 2014. A behind-the-scenes miniseries entitled Behind Amy Schumer premiered in 2012. The third season premiered on April 21, 2015, with a fourth season ordered the same day.[44] In 2014, Schumer embarked on her Back Door Tour to promote the second season of her show.[45] The show was closed by Bridget Everett, whom Schumer cites as her favorite live performer.[46] She also appeared as a guest on an episode of comedian Jerry Seinfeld's Internet series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee in 2014.[47]

In the media

In 2015, Schumer was named one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people.[78] In 2015, Schumer was also named to Barbara Walters' 10 Most Fascinating People list for 2015.[79] Schumer has received praise for addressing various social issues through comedy.[80][81][82][83][84][85]

In June 2015, Monica Heisey of The Guardian criticized her for "a shockingly large blind spot around race".[85] Schumer responded on Twitter, stating "I go in and out of playing an irreverent idiot. That includes making dumb jokes involving race ... You can call it a 'blind spot for racism' or 'lazy,' but you are wrong. It is a joke ... I am not racist."[86] Schumer was again criticized in July 2020 by Kyndall Cunningham of The Daily Beast for her earlier work, which included "objectifying black men" and calling Latina women "crazy". Cunningham described her "sudden" decision to support the Black Lives Matter movement as "befuddling and laughable".[87]

Throughout 2015, several of Schumer's skits in Inside Amy Schumer went viral online, sparking editorials regarding sex, feminism, and rape culture.[88][89][90][91]

After a fatal shooting took place at a showing of Trainwreck in Louisiana, Schumer advocated for stricter gun control laws and increased mental health funding.[92]

In November 2015, Schumer posed nude for a photo by photographer Annie Leibovitz for 2016 edition of the Pirelli Calendar.[93] Schumer tweeted the photo, writing "Beautiful, gross, strong, thin, fat, pretty, ugly, sexy, disgusting, flawless, woman. Thank you."[94]

In January 2016, Schumer was accused of stealing jokes from comedians Tammy Pescatelli, Kathleen Madigan, Wendy Liebman, and Patrice O'Neal.[95][96] Schumer denied the allegations.[97][98] Other comedians, such as Marc Maron and Dave Rubin, defended Schumer.[99][100] Pescatelli later apologized, stating it had "gone too far" and was probably "parallel thinking".[101] In 2017, a video showcasing all cases of alleged joke thefts were collated in a 26-minute compilation on YouTube by The Tangerine Show, garnering more than 8.8 million views as of May 2023.[102]

On October 4, 2018, Schumer was arrested at the US Capitol while protesting the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh as an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court.[103][104]

She has also used her role as a comedian to encourage higher voter turnout and spread awareness about voter ID laws.[105][106]

In October 2023, Schumer, among with more than 700 other Hollywood professionals, signed an open letter condemning the terrorist group Hamas and demanding the release of hostages held in Gaza.[107] The letter reads: "As Israel takes the necessary steps to defend its citizens in the coming days and weeks, social media will be overrun by an orchestrated misinformation campaign spearheaded by Iran. We urge everyone to remember the horrific images that came out of Israel and to not amplify or fall for their propaganda."[108]

Personal life

Schumer has dated professional wrestler Nick Nemeth, better known by his ring name Dolph Ziggler,[109] and comedian Anthony Jeselnik.[110] Schumer married chef and farmer Chris Fischer on February 13, 2018, in Malibu, California.[111][112] In October 2018, she announced that she was expecting their first child.[113] On May 5, 2019, Schumer gave birth to a boy, Gene.[114] Schumer initially gave Gene the middle name Attell—in honor of comedian Dave Attell—but changed it to David after realizing that "Gene Attell" sounded like "genital".[115] Her son was born by caesarean section because of her endometriosis.[116] In September 2021, Schumer had her uterus removed to alleviate symptoms related to the condition.[117]
