Her comedic portrayal earned Braun For Your Emmy® Consideration status as “Outstanding Guest Actress In A Comedy Series.”

Audiences have been enjoying a range of scene-stealing performance from Braun on the big and small screen for years. Her extensive TV and film credits include starring alongside Danny Trejo in the feature film Donny’s Party, as well recent appearances in the comedy feature, The Clapper alongside Ed Helms and Tracy Morgan, ABC’s medical drama Grey’s Anatomy opposite Ellen Pompeo, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia beside Danny DeVito, and IFC’s hit Documentary Now! with Fred Armisen.

From the idyllic suburb of Northbrook, Illinois, Braun began acting at age 12 as The Scarecrow in The Wiz. Her mother was the famed Miss Beverly, host of the children’s classic television show Romper Room and her father was a Navy pilot.  They both encouraged Wendy’s love of performing.

After graduating early from Indiana University and moving to Los Angeles, Wendy became a recognizable face, after being offered a 26-spot national commercial campaign for Mervyn’s, which showcased her unique comedic timing, improv talent and personal charisma.

She has since returned to the Chicago stage to star in The Vagina Monologues at The Apollo Theatre, as well as perform stand-up comedy at Zanie’s in Chicago. Braun has also performed stand-up at Los Angeles’ prestigious The Improv + The Comedy Store.

Residing in Los Angeles, Braun enjoys balancing career, family, marriage and motherhood with her husband, actor, Josh Coxx, and their two exuberantly active sons.
