Edwonda White is a talented comedian, actress and freelance writer from the small town of Lynwood, California.  Although she started from very humble beginnings, she is quickly rising to become one of the most exciting new talents in Hollywood today. She is a regular at all of the major comedy clubs in the country and has been featured on: Martin Lawrence’s Hit Comedy Show : “First Amendment Stand up” on Starz, Black Entertainment Television’s long running comedy series “Comic View”, HBO and Russell Simons’ Def Comedy Jam, The Tom Joyner radio show as well as its television production. Although she was well known in urban arenas for being featured on shows like “The Bad girls of Comedy”, as well as being the opening act for the late great BERNIE MAC, Edwonda has changed the way she does things and is currently touring with a more upbeat and family oriented routine. She is certainly a crowd pleaser and a showstopper these days because not only is she funny, but she also brings all of the elements of a great Broadway show into play. She sings her original songs, she raps, she dances, and somehow manages to blend all of her hilarious and endearing characters into a very fascinating stage performance. That is why people all over the country are lining up to see what she will do next.  Edwonda is a very positive person and many of her views are reflected in her act. She believes that if “Laughter is the Best Medicine” then it is her job to heal the world. Most female comedy acts are one-sided, while Edwonda’s routine is multifaceted. That is why her star is rising every day and there is truly no limit to what she can do. As an actress, she has done many commercials, plays and guest appearances, and as a writer she is currently finishing up a new novel. Some early honors that she has received are as follows: She was named Female Comedian of the year by Black Television, She was recipient of The Mom’s Mabley Award for Comedic Excellence, She received the honor of being awarded “Clean Comedian of the Year” by the Gospel/Christian Alliance and she is just as popular in Comedy Clubs and Colleges as she is in the Corporate and Gospel Arenas. Edwonda truly loves what she does but she also realizes that many people still have yet to see what she has to offer, so I present to some and introduce to others: {The one and only} EDWONDA WHITE.
