Maria Bamford's comedy tackles mental illness, suicidal ideations and hospitalization -- uncomfortable topics for some audiences. But her career is a testament to how ready audiences are to engage with this sometimes trying, always hilarious subject matter.
Leoneda Inge talks to Bamford about her new special, her long career and her North Carolina tour dates. Bamford is scheduled to appear in Charlotte on January 24 at the Knight Theater at the Levine Center for the Arts.
