Jenny Slate, 35, is an American comedian, actor and author. The middle of three sisters, with a ceramicist mother and poet father, she was raised in Milton, Massachusetts. While at Columbia University, Slate performed standup and improv. Moving to Los Angeles with then-husband, director Dean Fleischer-Camp (they’ve since amicably divorced), Slate joined Saturday Night Live in 2009, but accidentally swore in her first episode and was fired after one season.
A stop-motion short animation made with Fleischer-Camp, Marcel the Shell With Shoes On, became a viral hit, leading to New York Times bestseller children’s books and plans for a feature-length movie.
With her distinctive voice, Slate featured in Zootopia and The Secret Life of Pets. On television, she appeared in Parks and Recreation, Married and Girls. Her performance in Gillian Robespierre’s Obvious Child, playing a comic navigating a pregnancy termination, won her awards including the Critics’ Choice award for best actress in a comedy. Slate stars in another Robespierre film, Landline, due out in the summer. In her latest film, Gifted, she plays a teacher who becomes involved with a man (Chris Evans) caring for his maths prodigy niece (Mckenna Grace).
What about Ivanka Trump – she gets a lot of criticism for being “complicit”?
I think that Ivanka Trump is a fake feminist who will go down in history as someone who really betrayed human beings and who should be ashamed of herself. I’m ashamed of her. I think she’s really gross and her husband [Jared Kushner] as well.

Poor snowflake never had a chance from the beginning.
I think we've found a cure for insomnia. Just read Jenny Slate's bio and you'll never have to count sheep again.
Whereas Linda Sarsour represents authentic feminism.
Feminism only exists where men have developed the economy of their country to a point that woman have a lot of free time on their hands.
Feminists: Bored wealthy white women.
As friend of mine often says, life just sh*ts on some people.
‘Ivanka Trump is a Fake Feminist and Should Be Ashamed’
Ivanka should be ashamed for actually doing things for women other than leftist lip gloss.
Wow, she’s so famous I’ve never heard of her.
And that’s speaking as someone who has occasionally watched SNL over the decades.
I have never heard of this woman in ANY of those categories. Who the hell is she?
Caitlin Jenner is fake. Not Ivanka.
Who ?
The Green from the Envy just oozes off the screen.
Ivanka’s an easy target. What is Jenny Slate’s take on how women are treated in islam?
Never heard of her. Who is she?
What more has she done, than Ivanka, to empower and employ women?
Didn’t even make it past her first season on SNL.
A job point on the resume of so many famous people.
Never heard of her.
I gave heard of Ivanka Trump, because of her father.
Why do so-called comedians think we should be interested in their political opinions?
Uh, huh...yeah, okay...sure.
Stupid bimbo liberal moron...if that pig Lena Dunham is your idea of an "innovator"...then, sweet cheeks, your whole damn genre is doomed, much less your generation.
The ignorance of these fools astounds me.
You are counting sheep......her. That’s one.......
