Deven Green is the creator/voice of the "Welcome To My...Comedy Parody" series and is America's Best Christian - Betty Bowers.
Received Sainthood by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence - San Diego Most Popular Female Personality Nominee- WeHo Awards Outrate Magazine Head Judge for "Online Film Festival' - Australia Most Humorous YouTube Video - San Francisco Film Fest Comedy Performer of the Decade - Los Angeles Funniest Online Video - New York Magazine In Rufus Wainwright's Top 10- New York Times
Deven started out as a professional figure skater whose triple-gold medal status is memorialized in her hometown located in the remote, isolated, boreal tundra of Northern Canada. She was called in by Disney to recreate the figure skating portions of "Blades of Glory" and "Ice Princess" which proves she can still turn a trick. Realizing she didn't want to don a Smurf costume to tour with Ice Capades, she transitioned to a brief modeling jaunt where she quickly discovered that any industry who prefers a closed mouth was not for her. Thankfully her sizable comic talents landed her in Toronto where she graduated from Seneca College at the top of her class and perfected her comedic sensibilities at Second City. Landing several national commercials and movie roles gave her the money to feed her insatiable addiction to Pez candy.
With self-discipline ingrained from years of early morning skating practice and late night comedy shows, Deven quickly excelled to win ten Best Female Improvisor / Sketch Comedy Performer awards from the LAC (MY Fox LA's #1 Comedy Club), prevailed in Craig Shoemaker's Comedy Idol competition, and won "Best of the Fest" at the First International Hollywood Comedy Festival as one-half of the nationally recognized comedy duo Deven & Joel.
