Jerri Blank – Amy Sedaris

Amy Sedaris portrayed the character Jerri Blank in the ’90s comedy series “Strangers With Candy” for three seasons. The surreal show depicts the journey of a troubled protagonist who goes back to high school in her 40s. Jerri Blank, the eccentric character, sports extravagant makeup, has tattooed knuckles, and her hair undergoes mysterious length changes within episodes.

Offscreen, the American actress and comedian Amy Sedaris exudes a more stylish persona. Interestingly, she humorously remarked that the appearance of Jerri Blank was meant to resemble “someone who owns snakes.”
