Negin is now producing/directing (and even making an appearance in) the Comedy Central series, The Watch List – the first ever mainstream network pilot to feature a Middle Eastern-American cast. She originally earned her film chops as a producer and story editor on the film A Cricket in the Court of Akbar and is currently the Director/Executive Producer of the film Nerdcore Rising – a hilarious documentary about nerdy hip hop (slated to be released next season). Her short film Iran-ing on Empty, which she wrote, directed and appeared in, has been a selection in comedy festivals as well as the off-Broadway show, Laughing Liberally.

As a standup comedian she has opened for the likes of Al Franken and Bobby Lee (Mad TV) in venues ranging from the Laugh Factory in New York, the Comedy Store in Los Angeles, and Town Hall on Broadway. Negin has provided original comedy content for Pacifica and Sirius Radio stations. She has been an active comedian and producer for over ten years with sketch comedy groups Madame Funnypants and Three Jews and a Persian, earning a nomination for the Emerging Comics of New York Awards. Her solo show Bootleg Islam, which she wrote and performed, has appeared in the DC, Dallas, and Chicago Comedy Festivals among others. Her first ever musical The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: A Romantic Comedy recently premiered at the New York International Fringe Festival.

Her work has been called 'smart, funny, and fascinating' by the Wall Street Journal, a Critic's Choice by the Chicago Tribune, 'a shining exception,' by the Dallas Morning News, and Backstage cheered that it 'doesn't get much funnier than this!' And, randomly, she has two master's degrees from Columbia University where she studied public policy and race relations (degrees that now collect dust, ha ha).
