Before 30 Rock, Mean Girls, and 'Sarah Palin', Tina Fey was just a young girl with a dream: a recurring stress dream that she was being chased through a local airport by her middle-school gym teacher. She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV. She has seen both these dreams come true.

Tina si chiamava Assunta Adelaide Luigia Modotti. Era nata a Udine nel 1896, da un'umile famiglia. Il padre era un muratore di idee socialiste, lei dovette ben presto lasciare la scuola e lavorare per aiutare la famiglia, poi emigrò negli Stati Uniti dove stavano crescendo i grandi movimenti sindacali. La vita culturale e artistica in fermento a San Francisco, Los Angeles, Hollywood e a Città del Messico le dischiusero la via prima del teatro e del cinema, poi della fotografia.
