Robby Hoffman is an Emmy-winning writer, Emmy-nominated actor, and comedian whose work spans stand-up, television, and podcasting. In 2025, she was named one of Variety's "10 Comics to Watch" and her debut Netflix stand-up special, Robby Hoffman: WAKE UP, directed by John Mulaney premiered globally. 

In 2025 Hoffman also starred opposite Michelle Williams in FX’s critically acclaimed limited series Dying for Sex. She currently appears on Season 4 of HBO’s Hacks, where she earned an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series, and is now in production on Season 5\. She also currently appears on the HBO series Rooster from Steve Carell and Bill Lawrence. Hoffman is developing UnEntitled at HBO, a new series she is writing, executive producing, and set to star in.

The New York Times describes Robby as a “bulldozing stand-up,” comparing her to Larry David, noting her “mountain-out-of-a-molehill kvetching, but her hilarious rage makes her sound like a modern lesbian Andrew ‘Dice’ Clay.” The New York Times also praised her Patreon podcast Too Far as "an addictive listen.”
