Briefly

Megan Stalter pursued an entertainment career after leaving Ohio, engaging in improv and stand-up in Chicago. She gained recognition through social media, particularly for parodies of cringe women. Her early fame led to significant roles, including a breakout performance in HBO's 'Hacks.' Stalter expresses a lifelong passion for acting and appreciates how her career has evolved through various experiences. Each phase has uniquely shaped her as a performer, and she reflects on the transformative nature of her journey in the entertainment industry.
