Belinda Carroll is a Portland, Oregon based stand-up comic. A 2011 finalist for NBC’s Stand-Up For Diversity, with an appearance on the NBC show Grimm, she caught the comedy bug circa 1986 when she was asked to play not only, “Aunt Sally” in the school comedic masterpiece “Tom Sawyer”; but was also asked to sing the national anthem, in front of the entire school, in a gray-haired wig, floral mu-mu dress, and Mom’s orthopedic stockings. With her pride firmly in the gutter, her road had begun. Belinda’s Videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDjgjiYMwuo
