When I was a little girl, I was in love with a Navajo boy that lived on the other side of the fence that seperated us. He used to bring me tacos when my parents would starve me. It was like Aushwitz. One day he brought me a ring that had been in his family for 8 generations. He said, "Diarreah, I want you to have this ring, and for the Great Spirit to protect you. Then 3 days later, he asked for it back. There should be a name for that.I have a double page feature in LA's 944 magazine as one of the next people to watch for in "The Larger Than Life" issue. "Dinah is talented and incomparable and damn it because we said so!."I won 1st Place in The 2006 Funniest Comic in LA Contest. Beating out sixty of LA's hottest new comics! Internationally downloaded on Sprint Networks Comedy Time ( babelgum.com) I've been lining up with big comedy stars from Wanda Sykes (Guys North) and Damon Wayons (at the HAHA Cafe) To the private drunken highlight of my career singing at a party with John Lovits, Jeffrey Ross, Cloris Leachman and John Stamos's on drums.I holds my own on all-star line ups all over town inluding The World Famous Laugh Factory and The Comedy Store. I am Season 3's Top 10 finalist on famecast.com and the only remaining female comic in the International Online Comedy Contest. You can check it out at: FameCast.com/dinahleffert. Since they cut the comedy stage I'm pretty much of a legend. Maybe even a myth.The real highlight of my career so far has been performing in front of the great Lilly Tomlin who gave big props (see pics. Vitello's showroom).
I got my start in comedy as a working regular in the Comedy Revival Show at The World Famous Comedy Store on Sunset Blvd. Once I got to share the stage with Jeff Garland (Curb Your Enthusiasm) in a hilarious banter about his foot problem.I began my Hollywood climb as the lead actress of Hit Indie movie "Drinking Games" and have worked on several films including "More Dogs Than Bones" starring Mercedes Rule, Joe Montena. I also have several guest star credits on TV shows and have been in countless music videos. You may have seen me sweating it out with now mega famous Trainer Jackie Warner on Season One of Bravo's "Workout".Here is what some really cool people have to say:
