Betsy Kenney is a comedy writer, performer, and director.

Betsy spent years performing improv and sketch comedy at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in New York, where she was a Harold Night regular and hosted her own monthly shows. She wrote on the Ryan Reynold's Snap Chat Original, Ryan Doesn't Know. Betsy’s voice and face have appeared in commercials for Olay, Fruit of the Loom, Absolut, Geico, Samsung, TurboTax, Comedy Central, Bank of America, and Volkswagen. She’s been in three Super Bowl commercials—though, that only matters if the Eagles are playing (go Birds). She voices the lead role of ‘Angie’ in the Netflix animated series Motown Magic.

She writes, produces, and directs with collaborator Dara Katz (Cool Right Productions). Their short film Tapes, a dramedy about a mother/daughter relationship, premiered at the 2020 Tribeca Film Festival. Their 2018 film Amazing Bagel, a soft and sweet comedy about a miscarriage, was an official selection of the 2019 Maryland Film Festival and the Calgary International Film Festival, and won the Audience Choice Award at the Nitehawk Shorts Fest. Their 90s-set webseries The Place We Live was acquired by IFC and together, they’ve been dubbed ‘Genre Queens’ by Vulture.
