Lynn Harris is a culture-shifting producer, award-winning journalist, and author/co-author of six books, whose comedy and campaigns for social justice and gender equity have changed laws and conversations from Capitol Hill to NASCAR. She is founder and CEO of GOLD Comedyāthe comedy school, professional network, and content studio where women and non-binary folks grow their comedy careers, build powerful communities, and make funny stuff. Harris co-created Breakup Girl (acquired by Oxygen), one of the first multiplatform internet success stories, and served as the first VP of communications at global human rights group Breakthrough, where her blend of humor and advocacy powered some of the teamās most effective U.S. campaigns. She has also worked as a Tonya Harding lookalike, which is a long story. Lynn's Notes from the Sidelines:It's not about making people laugh. It's about saying things you think are funny.Wouldn't it be great to recognize comics as simply funny, regardless of their gender.Comedy is a potent social force, so it's not just about the content, it's about the faces and voices, because when you're doing comedy, you have authority.When you make people laugh, you make people listen. There are ways to combine comedy and trauma... if you can hold the trauma far enough away from you and look at it from all sides. And, be sure that the trauma isn't too raw that it's still causing constant pain.The more specific you are about your own story, the more relatable it is.Lynn says, "It takes 10 years to be an overnight success." So stop comparing yourself to others and just enjoy yourself.If you can read a room and say what everyone else is thinking, it relieves pressure and connects people.What if being funny was just for the delight and satisfaction of getting a laugh.Comedy shows allow the audience to bond, because if they all get the joke, then it means they share something.ā Lynn's websiteā ā Gold Comedy IGā ā The Marvelous Mrs. Maiselā
