Her mother, Beth Ann Halpin, was George McGovern’s personal campaign photographer and founded the theater company New Thalian Players.

She is open about her lifelong battle with clinical depression, crediting her subsequent emotional health to taking prescription drug Zoloft. She struggled with bedwetting from the time she was young until well into her teens and has joked that the last time she wet her bed was when she was fired from Saturday Night Live. Her biography published in April of 2010, entitled The Bedwetter, touches heavily on that very subject.

Silverman has stated she does not want to get married until same-sex couples are able to. She has also stated she doesn’t want to have biological children to avoid the risk that they might inherit her depression.

“I have no religion. But culturally I can’t escape it; I’m very Jewish.”

Her humor has also touched on other religions. In 2009 she suggested the Pope sell the Vatican and use some of the money for luxurious housing and the remainder to stop world hunger saying he would “get crazy p*ssy.”

As of January 2010 Silverman is dating Family Guy producer/writer Alec Sulkin.

Oh? Good. I cannot wait to see her anti-mulslim rant and telling Mohammed he should've stopped behind a pedo and “get crazy p*ssy.”

You'd think being a comedian and all that she'd be funny.

Don’t forget her 2008 escapade “The Great Schlep”.

I saw her making the rounds on the late night shows. It was pretty sick.
