Catherine Davis is a writer, comedian, and visual artist based in Brooklyn.
She performs at comedy revues and experimental variety shows around New York City. She’s one half of Radio Play, a two-person improvised noir act, and a founding member of the clown troupe Lovely Day.
She’s written for Reductress, The Onion, Points In Case, and other satire publishers. Her Reductress headline “I Gave Myself the Prettiest Braid Ever, So Now It Is Time to Die” was called “deeply, deeply funny” by The Cut/New York Magazine.
Most of her paintings are in a stack by her air purifier. But some have sold to private homes in New York City, Austin, the Bay Area, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Boulder, Colorado.
