Whether she’s delighting TV audiences with her social commentaries on CBS Sunday Morning or theater fans with her solo pieces, Nancy Giles is a funny, perceptive and provocative observer of today’s world.

She is the writer and performer of the one-woman shows, Notes of a Negro Neurotic and Black Comedy: The Wacky Side of Racism, which the Village Voice called “smart and unforgiving.” A self-described “six-foot, one-inch black woman who’s not model-thin,” Giles has made her mark dismantling misconceptions about race, feminism and sexism. “White people,” she jokes, “have nothing to fear.”
