Antonia Lassar is a Jewish comedian/writer/hottie based in L.A. She's best known for her viral TikToks about Jewish life, as well as being one half of the world-famous podcast Yenta! She has been profiled by Hey Alma for her work using stand-up comedy to build Jewish community and is currently touring venues like The New Repertory Theatre, Yale, UC Berkeley, and every single JCC.

She was the main speaker at the 2018 National March Against Rape Culture in Washington, D.C. for her work using comedy to educate about sexual violence. She recently received the prestigious Mandel Fellowship for her Jewish-focused stand-up comedy, and she performs with the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre. You can catch her doing stand-up shows around L.A. and at your mom's synagogue.
