Leanne Morgan Speaker Profile: At A Glance

Leanne Morgan is a Knoxville-based stand-up comedian, actress, producer, and New York Times best-selling author who mines Southern life, motherhood, marriage, and reinvention for sharp, empathetic comedy. Her Dry Bar Comedy clips have amassed more than 50 million views, and her 2023 Netflix special I’m Every Woman reached Netflix’s Top 10. Morgan sold over 100,000 tickets in the first six months of her Just Getting Started tour and released What in the World?! in September 2024 via Random House/Convergent.

Leanne Morgan is a stand-up comedian, writer, actress, and producer whose warm, candid Southern-inflected observational comedy focuses on motherhood, marriage, family life, aging, and everyday domestic experiences. A University of Tennessee graduate in Child and Family Studies, Morgan began performing after years of telling stories at in-home sales parties; those stories launched a late-blooming comedy career that moved from clubs and open mics to national stages, corporate events, and theater tours. Morgan built mainstream recognition over two decades through festival appearances and television development opportunities with ABC, Warner Bros., TV Land, and Sony Television, and she performed at Just for Laughs in Montreal. Her Dry Bar Comedy material—including the viral So Yummy set—has generated more than 50 million online views. Her first major theater tour, The Big Panty Tour, ran through 2022 for more than 100 U.S. dates; her follow-up Just Getting Started tour, launched in February 2023, sold more than 100,000 tickets in its first six months with stops at venues such as the Chicago Theatre, American Airlines Arena, and the Ryman Auditorium. Morgan’s profile expanded into streaming and scripted work when her Netflix special Leanne Morgan: I’m Every Woman premiered in 2023 and entered Netflix’s Top 10; Forbes listed it among Netflix’s highest-watched comedy specials of 2023. She followed with a second Netflix special, Unspeakable Things, which debuted at number one worldwide. Morgan appears in the 2025 film You’re Cordially Invited alongside Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell, and she is the creator and star of the Netflix sitcom Leanne, produced with Chuck Lorre. As an author, her book What in the World?!: A Southern Woman’s Guide to Laughing at Life’s Unexpected Curveballs and Beautiful Blessings (Random House/Convergent, 2024) became a New York Times bestseller. Morgan is married to Chuck Morgan and is the mother of three; she lives and works out of Knoxville, Tennessee.
