Nancy Guppy
Nancy Guppy is an American comedian and television personality from Seattle, Washington, U.S. She is perhaps best known from her time as a writer and cast member of KING-TV's Seattle-centric sketch comedy program ''Almost Live!'', which ran for 15 years (1984-1999).〔(Almost Live Reunion ), KING-TV.

Guppy grew up in Seattle's Magnolia neighborhood, graduated from Queen Anne High School and in 1982 from the University of Washington (as a speech and communications major). After three years in the Customer Service Credit Department of Nordstrom, she became a secretary in the Cornish College of the Arts drama department. She began playing small parts on ''Almost Live!'', where her then-boyfriend and later husband Joe Guppy was a regular cast member, and soon evolved into a writer for the show. In 1989 the couple moved to Los Angeles because her husband was hired by HBO for ''Not Necessarily the News'' which, however, was close to the end of its run. The two then wrote together on a free-lance basis, returning in 1992 to Seattle and to ''Almost Live''. She left ''Almost Live!'' in 1996 to write and produce a 32-skit, 7-character stage piece ''Cheaper Than Therapy'', which was presented that year at Seattle's Market Theater.〔
Since that time, Guppy has been creator/host/producer of a series of programs focusing on Pacific Northwest arts and culture, first ''City a Go Go'' on the Seattle Channel and KCTS,〔 and currently (as of 2015) ''Art Zone with Nancy Guppy'', a weekly television program on the Seattle Channel.〔(''Art Zone with Nancy Guppy'' homepage on SeattleChannel.org )〕 In 2015 she produced an art exhibit ''Musician: a Portrait Project'' at Seattle's newly restored Union Stables, featuring portraits by Ernie Sapiro of 172 prominent figures from the Seattle music scene.〔(Musician: a Portrait Project captures 50 years of music in the Pacific Northwest ) KING-TV, 2015-08-24.
