Amy Sedaris

I was watching a Tivod episode of Monk last night with Steven when I saw the name Amy Sedaris come across the credits. I wondered if she was related to David Sedaris and, sure enough, she's the sister Amy that gets mentioned in most of his stuff. If you've never read anything by him I highly recommend his essays and short stories, especially Holidays on Ice. The first story, about a man working in a Macy's as an elf at Christmas time is one of the funniest things I've ever read, especially if you ever worked in retail.

I love David Sedaris... and his whole crazy family. If you watch Sex and the City, Amy is the publisher that is not Molly Shannon. The blonde one.
Did you read David's piece about his brother's wedding in Esquire last month? Hysterical!

I recognize her from a couple of creepy episodes of "just shoot me".

Amy Sedaris as in Strangers with Candy? Funny, I saw that book at the store and wondered if he was related to her...
