Grace Parra Janney (born June 27, 1984) is an American screenwriter, presenter, and actress who was a contributor on The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore.

Career

Born in Houston, Texas, she moved to New York City to attend Columbia University, and graduated in 2006. She was a member of the Varsity Show, where her castmates included Kate McKinnon and Jenny Slate.[2][3] She began her writing career as part of NBC's Writers on the Verge Program, and has contributed to McSweeney's Internet Tendency.[4] She is the creator, writer, and co-host of The Really Late Morning Show, a live comedy talk show in Hollywood featuring celebrity interviews, sketches, and musical guests. Parra is the writer and host of Grace Parra 360, a web series focused on political satire, and Parra of Your World, in which she humorously covers expos, conventions, and other events across the country.

She co-hosted Fuse TV's late-night talk show, White Guy* Talk Show, alongside Saurin Choksi before joining The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore as a contributor in November 2015.[5] In 2017, she was part of creating a pilot pitched to TBS for a political satire called Beyond the Wall with Grace Parra; the show was not picked up.[6][7]

She is also a writer and producer of Hulu's Solar Opposites.[8] In July 2021, it is reported that Parra, Josh Bycel, and Eva Longoria have teamed up to develop a half-hour Mexican American family comedy series for ABC Network.[9] The show is inspired by Parra's own upbringing in a large Mexican American family.[8][10]

Personal life

She is of Mexican American descent.[11]

Parra married her husband Niall Janney in October 2020.[12]
