Meet the Cast of A Christmas Carol's Past: Amanda Cowper

Meet Amanda Cowper

I played Martha Cratchit in 1998. I went on to get a degree in Theatre Performance at Western Michigan University. Soon after graduating, I shifted gears to behind the camera. After moving to New York City in 2010, I worked as an Associate Producer on several Investigation Discovery shows and MSNBC's "Caught on Camera" and then was hired at "Late Night with Seth Meyers" and helped launch the show in 2014. I am currently Late Night's sole Field Producer and have produced over 250 segments with everyone from Rihanna to Michelle Obama. I also produce and direct in my spare time. "Woman of a Certain Age", a project I co-directed, premiered at Tribeca Film Festival N.O.W. and went on to win top awards at the Women in Comedy Festival in 2018. Also in 2018, I directed a short film, "Driver Ed", that made its premiere at Tribeca Film Fest. I produce a popular feminist, sex positive podcast called "Girls on Porn" that is distributed by HeadGum. Currently I reside in Brooklyn and have several more projects that I'm excited to share with the world!
