This week, we spoke to Libby Amber Walker, Jewish content creator and born and bred Upper West Sider who is most famous for her hilarious portrayal Sheryl Cohen, AKA everyone’s favorite Jewish mom on Tik Tok. Although she never attended Jewish day school, her Jewish upbringing came from her summers spent at Ramah Nyack. Her unique brand of Jewish comedy featured on social media is naturally inspired by her own life. She told us how she started creating Jewish personas online, starting with the iconic stereotypical Jewish mother. As more people related to her Jewish personas, the more confident she became in her ability to make people laugh. She told us more about the inspiration behind her characters, and even revealed that she’s never scripts her Tik Tok skits before filming! That’s right: it’s all improv! After getting bigger and bigger, she finally launched her own consulting business. She’s also rocking it with oh, so many Jewish brand deals, in addition to co-hosting Schmuckboys, a podcast all about Jewish dating. After chatting with Libby, we’ve got a pretty clear view of her future in Jewish comedy, and it is blindingly bright! She’s a fellow Jewish queen, and we can’t wait too see what genius content she comes up with next. You can find Libby on all the following Instagram accounts: @libbyamberwalker, @libby_w, and @schmuckboysofficial.
