About Me


My name is Allison Kilkenny.
I am a cartoonist and political humorist, a fancy way
of saying writer, who makes shitty world news funny.
I am a regular contributor to the Huffington Post,
The Beast, 236.com, and McSweeney's. My work has
also appeared in The Nation and Alternet.org's Wiretap
Magazine
, which are all huge credentials I am including
here to make you feel inferior to myself.
I hope it has worked.
Before moving to New York City, I toured North
America with crazed comic, Jamie Kilstein, as half
of The Modern Beats.

Never Forget: 2006/2007 Modern Beats Tour

--Josh Kilmer-Purcell, New York Times Best-selling author

"A great woman and awesome writer. I have a new friend and my poetry night has a new inspiration."
--Ed Mabrey, 2007 Individual Poetry Slam World Champion
"The way Allison writes about this tour, it almost makes me wish I were on it. I am obsessed with [their] adventures."
--Taylor Mali, four-time National Slam Champion
