A quick recap of her 2015 accomplishments:

  • Burst onto the cinematic scene by writing and starring in the summer comedy hit Trainwreck.
  • Inside Amy Schumer became even more of a phenomenon and won the Emmy for Outstanding Variety Sketch Series. 
  • Hosted Saturday Night Live.
  • Named to Time‘s yearly list of “The 100 Most Influential People.”
