her mother bravely resisted an arranged marriage in Korea and married Margaret’s father who writes joke books – in Korean. “Books like 1001 Jokes for Public Speakers – real corny stuff,” Margaret says. “I guess we’re in the
…the long running, live sketch comedy-variety show which was then in its infancy. The book included a couple of scripts forSNLskits that never made it on the air, usually (not always)[1], because the director and/or the network censor thought the skit’s humor went “too far.” One...

Bennett wasn’t always accent-free, though. She was born in Vermont and grew up all over New England. Her voice – dropped Rs and all – was “SNL”-skit ready. Can she imagine Siri as a New Englander? “Neva! Neva!” A stint in upstate New York helped her lose the accent. By ...
