Tina Fey – sprite with a Rommel battle plan

Tina Fey
Fey’s career took her from performing live improv theatre in Chicago straight onto the writers’ table at Saturday Night Live, coming up with the smarts in the heart of Manhattan. She also lost a bit of weight and tidied up her hair once she arrived, a doggedly pursued process that has — seriously — been compared in print with Leni Riefenstahl’s makeover of the Third Reich. One writer described Fey as a “sprite with a Rommel battle plan”.
The Times has an excellent profile of Tina Fey. Writer and lead in 30 Rock and former head writer at SNL and performer there. Known to many for her Sarah Palin take-off. This piece contrasts with an earlier post by Adam on Fey, noting a profile at Vanity Fair.
