Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actress, comedian, writer, singer, and producer Rachel Bloom first gained significant traction with her viral YouTube comedy music video ‘Fuck Me, Ray Bradbury’ in 2010, which earned a Hugo Award nomination in 2011 and established her distinctive voice in musical comedy. A graduate of NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts with a B.F.A. in Drama in 2009, Bloom continued to hone her comedic skills at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre. She released musical comedy albums, including ‘Please Love Me’ and ‘Suck It, Christmas,’ both in 2013, and contributed as a television writer for acclaimed shows such as Allen Gregory and Robot Chicken.
Most recently, Bloom co-starred in the Hulu series Reboot in 2022. She toured with and premiered her critically acclaimed one-woman show, ‘Death, Let Me Do My Show,’ during Off-Broadway runs in 2022 and 2023. This successful production was subsequently adapted into the Netflix special ‘Rachel Bloom: Death, Let Me Do My Special,’ which premiered in 2024, continuing to demonstrate her dynamic range as a performer and writer.
