Donna Lee at Jax Comedy House

Donna Lee blends her Thai and Irish heritage into a unique comedic voice, bringing audiences together through hilarious, heartfelt stories about family and cultural identity. Born in Thailand and raised in Texas, she proudly calls Austin home. Donna burst onto the comedy scene in 2006 as a finalist on Nick@Nite’s Search for the Funniest Mom in America, hosted by Katey Sagal. For five years, she balanced thechaos of motherhood, comedy tours, and a thriving career in medical sales. In 2012, she stepped back from stand-up to focus on raising her family and advancing professionally.

Now, with her sons grown and her husband and four wiener dogs (mostly) potty trained, Donna made her triumphant return to comedy full-time in May 2024. She's currently touring the nation’s top comedy clubs and is a proud member of the national stand-up group Moms Unhinged. She was also recently on K*ll Tony (ep 722) where, after her interview and performance, she advanced with an exclusive invitation to the coveted
“Secret Show.

Donna is also the host and producer of two award-winning podcasts: The Armor Men’s Health Show with Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee and The Ryan Wayne Salon Podcast with Joseph Ryan and Donna Lee. She recently co-authored the book Building Wealth, Building Legacy with original Shark Tank judge Kevin Harrington, contributing a powerful
chapter about how humor helped her survive—and thrive.
Over the years, Donna has shared the stage with some of her comedy heroes, including Jo Koy, Leanne Morgan, D.L. Hughley, Bill Engvall, and many more.
