Girl Walks into a Bar . . . by Rachel Dratch

Girl Walks into a Bar . . . by Rachel Dratch

The former SNL star recounts the adventures and unexpected joy of dating and becoming a mom when she least expected it--at the age of forty-four.

Anyone who saw an episode of Saturday Night Live between 1999 and 2006 knows Rachel Dratch. She was hilarious! So what happened to her? After a misbegotten part as Jenna on the pilot of 30 Rock, Dratch was only getting offered roles as "Lesbians. Secretaries. Sometimes secretaries who are lesbians."

Her career as a female comedian at a low point, she suddenly had time for yoga, dog-sitting, learning Spanish--and dating. Dratch reveals the joys and terrors of putting herself out there in a quest to find love and then becoming a mother in an undreamed-of way. With riotous humor, she recounts breaking the news to her bewildered parents, the awe of her single friends, and romance and coparenting with her baby-daddy, John.

Filled with great behind-the-scenes anecdotes from Dratch's time on SNL, Girl Walks into a Bar . . . is a funny book with a refreshing version of the happily-ever-after story, full of sensitivity, candor, and plenty of comic relief, as only Rachel Dratch can tell it.

Rachel Dratch was a cast member of Saturday Night Live for seven seasons, best noted for her roles as Boston teen Denise Zazu McDonough, Will Ferrell's Lovers instructors, and Debbie Downer. A Female Enters a Pub... is her debut novel. However, she intends to write a 20-volume biography of herself and sell it door-to-door like encyclopedias.
