Stefanie Wilder-Taylor

Stefanie Wilder-Taylor is an American humorist. She worked for years as a writer and producer on game shows including Love Lounge (2005), The Dating Game (1997), and Blind Date (1999).[1] She then became famous for a series of books in which she displayed an irreverent attitude toward parenthood. In The New York Times in 2009, Jan Hoffman wrote, "Ms. Wilder-Taylor, a former stand-up comic, has made a career from championing cocktail play-date attitude. With books like Sippy Cups Are Not for Chardonnay and Naptime Is the New Happy Hour and her scabrously funny Web column, 'Make Mine a Double: Tales of Twins and Tequila,' she has been the toast of the antiperfection mom-lit world."[2]

Taylor was born in Queens, New York City. Her father was the standup comedian Stanley Myron Handelman.[3] She has been married to Jon Taylor, a television producer, since 2005. The couple has three children[2] and resides in Encino, California.[4]
