About Heather E. Schwartz
Hi, I'm Heather! I create engaging, audience-centered experiences through performance, communication, and creative content. At Quiet Girl Comedy, I produce comedy, music, and children's shows throughout New York State's Capital Region and beyond. As you can see from my photo, I lead with enthusiasm! But I have to be honest: This particular image isn't performance-related. It's just me bowling.
In my youth, I dabbled in community theatre, dance, and original productions. As an adult, I got serious and studied improv for more than a decade, mainly at The Mopco Improv Theatre, with some training at Improv Boston, Happier Valley Comedy, and The PIT as well.
A few highlights of my career include solo shows at NYC’s The PIT and The Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theatre; appearing as an author/expert on E! True Hollywood Story; being quoted in People magazine; and getting bumped from an interview on CNN by Queen Elizabeth II.
My publishing credits include Jenna Ortega: A Little Golden Book Biography (Penguin Random House, 2026), The Muppet Movie: An Official Picture Book (Hachette Book Group, 2026), and numerous collaborations with major brands such as Disney, Sesame Street, Scholastic, Mack Trucks, and the Mayo Clinic. I also help organizations communicate better through writing, editing, and performance anxiety training at Heather E. Schwartz Studio.
