Writer, comedian, and television personality
Kat Timpf
HANCE AWARDEE Kat Timpf
Kat Timpf is a writer, comedian, and television personality. She’s currently the co-host of “Gutfeld!” on Fox News weeknights at 10 p.m. and a Fox News analyst. She’s also the author of the New York Times bestsellers “You Can’t Joke About That: Why Everything is Funny, Nothing is Sacred, and We’re All in This Together” and “Used To Like You Until… (How Binary Thinking Divides Us).”
Kat is a prolific writer, having worked as a columnist for National Review for nearly six years. She’s also worked at Campus Reform, The Washington Times, Barstool Sports, and of course, Boston Market. She’s no stranger to the stage, either: The national tour of her comedy live show, “You Can’t Joke About That LIVE,” sold out in theaters all around the country.
Kat stands out in a sea of pundits because of her libertarian perspective and use of comedy and satire to get her no-nonsense points across – even landing her on Variety’s New Power of New York list in 2023. While she is steadfast in her strong libertarian beliefs, Kat is a firm believer in the power of conversations to bridge gaps, political or otherwise. Kat loves connecting with people across the country and around the world and talking about the things that are on everyone’s minds, but no one’s lips. And she is sure to do so with a great deal of respect and humor.
She currently lives in New York City with her husband Cam, their son, their dog Carl, and her cat Cheens.
Founder’s Day event proceeds benefit the St. Barnabas Free Care Fund, providing compassionate care to those in need.
