But no matter what the topic, Julia always writes with elegant precision, pinning her jokes with razor-sharp observations while articulating feelings that we all share.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJulia Sweeney was a cast member of \u003ci\u003eSaturday Night Live\u003c\/i\u003e from 1990 to 1994.
