As co-creator and former head writer of The Daily Show and co-founder of Air America Radio, Lizz Winstead has helped change the very landscape of how people get their news. Winstead also brought her political wit to The Daily Show as a correspondent and later to the radio waves co-hosting Unfiltered, Air America Radio's mid-morning show, with Chuck D and Rachel Maddow.

Lizz continues doing stand-up and is working on a second book, but spends most of her time at the helm of Lady Parts Justice, a reproductive rights organization that uses humor and outrage to expose anti-choice zealots and mobilizes people to take action in all 50 states.
