- Lives in New York's Hudson Valley where she teaches improvisation and is presently writing a book of memoirs. She shares her life with partner Barbara Smiley. (May 2019)
- She is the first lesbian actress ever to be a cast member on Saturday Night Live (1975).
- Received a CableACE Award in 1995 "Best Actress in a Comedy Series" for her role as Toby Pedalbee in HBO's Dream On (1990).
- Has the unique distinction of appearing in Saturday Night Fever (1977) and having been a regular on Saturday Night Live (1975) (she in fact first appeared on 'SNL' (in the series' third episode) two years before 'fever' was released). They are two similar-named, 1970s pop culture sensations that much of the public has often confused or misspoken of.
