Back to 16. Lisa Kudrow, with Lisa Kudrow.
Who Taught Conan O'Brien and Lisa Kudrow Their First Improv Class?
Cynthia Szigeti taught the intro improv class where Conan O'Brien and Lisa Kudrow met. On Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend they still disagree about the year: Conan says the class did not start until January or February 1986. He had just come to Los Angeles with his writing partner, Greg Daniels, and on his first day at Not Necessarily the News, at 22, he called the Groundlings to get into a class. The Groundlings were fully booked and sent him to Szigeti. Lisa Kudrow called too, while she was trying to get a modeling career started. Asked when she had last performed, she said junior high, and they sent her to the same class.
