From the venue:

Karen Mills is a stand-up comedian with 30 years experience. Known for her sharp wit and relatable topics, this Tennessee girl has performed on the iconic stage of the Grand Ole Opry and toured alongside comedy sensation Leanne Morgan. Karen recently appeared on the daytime show “The Talk.”

Karen’s Dry Bar Comedy special “Baby Got Bad Back” has gotten over 35 million views, and she was featured in a comedy special produced by Nate Bargatze called "The Showcase." Karen can be heard regularly on Sirius/XM comedy channels.

This self-proclaimed “crazy dog lady” has a straight-forward approach to the realities of life. Her smart, funny, keen observations will keep you laughing at yourself as you relate to her experiences. Even Ovarian cancer couldn’t stop her from turning her pain into punchlines. Diagnosed in 2013 after a routine checkup, Karen was determined to take on the disease with hope and humor and in 2016 she was chosen to present her talk, "Cancer is a Laughing Matter" at TEDxChattanooga.

Karen has faced every challenge with determination. She stands at 5'2" and was told more than once that she was too short to play basketball. Not only did she play, in 1981 she led the nation in assists and became the first, Division 1 first team All-American in UT Chattanooga’s history. Karen was the first UTC athlete to earn that distinction in any sport, male or female. Her #12 uniform was retired and in 1981 she was inducted into Chattanooga’s Basketball Hall of Fame.
