Tiffany Haddish Biography

Tiffany Sarac Haddish (born December 3, 1979) is an American comedian, actress, and dancer.

Early life

Haddish is the oldest of five children. She is of Ethiopian Jewish, Eritrean and African American descent. She cared for her younger siblings while her mother worked overnight at the post office. In 1988 her mother was in a car accident and went through the windshield of her car; this caused or triggered her schizophrenia. When Haddish was 13 her family was split up and the children put into foster care before her grandmother was awarded custody. Still damaged, Haddish constantly was in trouble at school. Finally her social worker gave her an ultimatum: go to psychiatric therapy or Laugh Factory Comedy Camp. The camp was the outlet for her pain and her passion for comedy was sparked.
