Tissa Hami after her stand-up comedy debut in
November 2002 at the Comedy Studio in Harvard
Square, Cambridge, MA.  Of 10 first-time
comedians who performed that night, Tissa was
the only one booked on the spot for another show.
Tissa doesn't wear the veil offstage.
Who would want to hide all that hair?

Behshahr, Mazandaran, Iran.
I cast my Axis of Evil spell on you.
Work that mic, girl.
Hmm, foreshadowing?
Taking in the fabulous sights of Concordia,
Kansas a few hours before my show.  I may
be the first Muslim ever to step foot here.

YOU!  Come to my show!  
Find out if I have a left foot.  
Hey, no peeking at the other pictures!
