Jamie Bingner
(she/her)
Washington Improv TheaterJust like Judy Garland, Prince, and Target, Jamie Bingner is one of many wonderful things to come out of Minnesota.
Jamie discovered improv through high school mime classes but enjoyed the WIT training program because she was allowed to talk. Jamie was raised in a town that was voted Money magazine’s best town to live in in 1993. But as all good things must come to an end, she is now living and improvising in DC.
Jamie has taken classes at UCB, Magnet, and Washington Improv Theater. She is currently a WIT faculty member and coach of the former WIT Harold team People Like Us.
