As a Second City alumna, Elvira's training has served her well. Her Gemini (Emmy) nominated hour long special, 'Big Girl Now', also nabbed the Gold Award at the Worldfest International Film Festival and she's had stand out appearances on HBO, VH-1's 'The List', Showtime, A&E, PBS, Lifetime, two CBC Comedy Specials, pilots for CBC and Second City and countless special and guest appearances, hosting and co-hosting on various benefits, comedy, awards and talk shows. She was also the a judge on “Comic Genius,” was a cast member on “HypaSpace,” Canada’s latest news & entertainment spoof show, and appeared on “Second City’s Next Comedy Legend,” those shows on Canadian TV. Not surprisingly, Elvira's universal appeal has also made her one of the hottest and most in demand college acts in the country. She's been nominated as both U.S. College Comedian and Entertainer of the Year.
