Her debut one-hour comedy special, War Paint, reached #1 on the iTunes charts and was named one of its Top 10 Albums of 2013. In early 2015, Iliza’s follow-up Freezing Hot, a Netflix Original Comedy Special, sealed her title as one of the hottest touring acts in America, with Esquire Magazine listing her as one of the top working comedians today.

As a national headliner, Iliza tours year-round selling out hundreds of clubs and colleges throughout the world. She also participated in the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff’s personal USO Tour throughout the Middle East and Europe, as well as Al Roker’s Today Show USO Tour in Afghanistan, with Jay Leno and Craig Robinson.
Iliza’s television credits include multiple appearances on NBC’s Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, The Today Show, Comedy Central, Hollywood Game Night, Chelsea Lately, Arsenio and Late Night with Carson Daly as well as hosting 230 episodes for the CBS syndicated show Excused and the TBS show Separation Anxiety in 2016.
