Sophie Hard is from Northern California and grew up unable to ask a question in class without her face turning red. She moved to Los Angeles after college and took an improv class hoping that she could learn to be funny on stage and make new friends along the way. After going through Second City’s program in 2015, she ended up in a professional improv conservatory through Impro Theatre, improvising such genres as romcom, Tennessee Williams, ghost stories, and Jane Austen. She currently directs and performs in Jane Austin Improv, winner of a B. Iden Payne award for best new improv troupe in Austin.
