After reading, A Pocketful of Confidence, comedian Nancy Lombardo's wonderful self-help book, I couldn't resist writing the review poem below. Nancy has performed her unique comedy from coast to coast, and she has been featured on radio, network and cable TV. Her credits include writer and performer on radio, network and cable television, including Comedy Tonight, Nickelodeon and the Comedy Channel.

As the leading member of the award-winning comedy troupe The First Amendment, Nancy performed with such stars as Robin Williams and Bruce Willis. She also served as a comedy consultant to John Leguizamo's Off-Broadway hit Mambo Mouth and wrote additional material for his HBO Special, The Talent Pool. She is also the host and creator of MOMEDY™, part of the International Mamapalooza Festival held every May in New York City.

It’s no surprise that Nancy was named a winner of the Toyota Comedy Festival’s "Laughter in Motion” and received a Cable Arts Insight Comedy Award.

Nancy’s fun radio show, What’s the Buzz, NY?, airs on BlogTalkRadio every Monday and Friday at 10:30 a.m. She also appears frequently on SNL and is a cast member of the award-winning short film, CAKE: A Love Story, which is now available free of charge on YouTube.

Filled with secrets and even jokes.
