Jeannie Gaffigan’s Career
From a very young age, Jeannie loved the world of acting. In fact, her career started as a stage actress in a regional theater. She moved to New York after quitting her masters program to perform in sketch comedy groups and small theater companies.

Jeannie then explored her options and started to write and produce comedy with Jim Gaffigan, her future husband. She has since helped write five of Jim’s comedy specials, serving as director for his fifth.
She has worked as a comic writer in several shows, co-writing the animated TV series Pale Force, starring Jim Gaffigan and Conan O’Brien. Jeannie worked on this series with her brothers Patrick Noth, a composer, and Paul Noth, a cartoonist.
In 2013, Jeannie started working with her husband to develop the pilot of The Jim Gaffigan Show, which aired on TV Land. Jeannie co-wrote and was also the executive producer of the 22 episodes, and directed the season two finale. Last year, the couple decided not to continue with Season 3, in order to focus on their family.

Jeannie Gaffigan’s Marriage and Kids
When Jeannie was focussing on Shakespeare on the Playground, she met Jim Gaffigan. As they became closer, Jim began volunteering with the company. While talking about her husband, Jeannie said, “He was one of the smartest and funniest people I’d ever met, I liked that we had the same work ethic. Also, he’s from a family of six kids, so there was a language that we understood right away. And he grew up on Lake Michigan, but he was on the Indiana side outside of Chicago.”
