100 Women We Love 2006

Meet the class of 2006

Julie Goldman

If laughter is the best medicine, Brooklyn-based comedian Goldman is a comic surgeon. Her unapologetically out comedy meshes cultural commentary with biting sarcasm that never fails to put the audience in stitches. Goldman quipped sarcastically, “Being a lez comedian is simple. There’s no misogyny, or pressures to conform to the ‘mainstream,’ the fraternity mentality of comedy clubs and networks is just totally welcoming and amazing at every step.” In her personal life, said Goldman, “having a big lezzie wedding” in Toronto, and later Massachusetts, ranks high among her proudest moments. This, combined with getting her new dog Russell, has made her life “a big lezzie Jewey dream.”
