Hannah Einbinder’s first ever acting role was playing Ava on Hacks. Read that again! After doing standup for years, Hannah landed the role of Ava, the socially awkward, politically correct, zesty writer that managed to break through to Deborah Vance (played by the brilliant Jean Smart). Their chemistry is unmatched, and you’d never guess that Hannah is a rookie at this acting game. We talk about her standup beginnings, her close relationship with Jean Smart, her obsession with Zendaya and more!
