She began her professionally funny career on a dare, and in the early 90s she was one of the very few openly queer comedians doing stand-up in mainstream comedy cl ubs. Westenhoefer's HBO comedy special, the first by an openly lesbian performer, was nominated for a Cable Ace Award, and her 2 comedy albums, "Nothing In My Closet But My Clothes" and "I'm Not Cindy Brady" each won "Best Comedy" Gay & Lesbian American Music Awards. She's currently working on her 3rd CD, but the blond-tressed comedy diva spent some time recently chatting about life, love, career and politics with "This Way Out" correspondent LONNY STERN [KOOP-FM/Austin, Texas] (includes excerpts from a m id-90s groundbreaking TV stand-up performance) . . 17:55 [www.suzannew.com] SEGMENT #2 ­ "TWO" I.D. by SIR IAN McKELLEN (with an excerpt from "An Actor’s Life For Me" from Disney's "Pinocchio") . . . . . . . . . . :20 SEGMENT #3 ­ This latest offering from the "AUDIOFILE" (hosted by CHRIS WILSON & JD DOYLE and written & produced with CHRISTOPHER DAVID TRENTHAM) features 3 debut CDs: the "drama pop" of JUSTIN TRANTER (excerpts from "Arrive" and "Blend In" from "SCRATCHED"), the queer cabaret of STEVE KIMBROUGH ("Big Daddy" and "One Last Prince" from "THE HERE AND NOW"), and the naked truth of SACHA SACKET ("Primordial" and "The Trickster" from "ALABASTER FLESH") (with comments by each of the artists) [7:15] + promo for the upcoming special "AudioFile Year In Review" program [:30] . 7:45 = artist contact info = JUSTIN TRANTER STEVE KIMBROUGH SACHA SACKET 173 Jackson St #3 1524 W.
