Tracey Ullman

Tracey Ullman, born Trace Ullman on 30th December 1959, is a multi-talented British-American actress, comedian, singer, dancer, screenwriter, producer, and director. She is celebrated for her ability to seamlessly move between characters and accents, earning her the comparison with the 'Female Peter Sellers'. Ullman's early performances include British television sketch comedies such as 'A Kick Up the Eighties' and 'Three of a Kind'. Prior to her migration to the United States, Tracey had a brief singing career that yielded three top-ten singles.

In the United States, Ullman found fame with her own network television comedy series, 'The Tracey Ullman Show', which ran from 1987 until 1990 and also introduced the animated media franchise 'The Simpsons'. She later produced shows for HBO, including 'Tracey Takes On...' from 1996–99, securing numerous awards. She returned to British television in 2016 with the BBC sketch comedy 'Tracey Ullman's Show', her first project for the broadcaster in over 30 years. This led to the creation of the topical comedy series 'Tracey Breaks the News' in 2017. Ullman has also appeared in several feature films and has continued to amass accolades through her career, including 12 American Comedy Awards, 7 Primetime Emmy Awards, 2 British Academy Film Awards, 4 Satellite Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and a Screen Actors Guild Award.
