Gasteyer showed a series of clips that were some of her favorites from the show, including Margaret Jo of the NPR radio show “Delicious Dish,” Martha Stewart, and the caddy news anchors of MSNBC covering the Clinton scandal.

 Ana Gasteyer Biography :: Hollywood.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
A dark-haired comedic actress, Ana Gasteyer has used her slender, non-exotic appearance and relatively privileged background to her advantage, standing out as one of the better impersonators on "Saturday Night Live" with takes on over-composed popular icons including Martha Stewart and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Gasteyer's success on the series would help to combat the behind-the-scenes boys' club mentality "SNL" was accused of perpetrating, while her impersonations and original characters would inform popular culture much like Mike Myers' Wayne Campbell, Eddie Murphy's Mister Robinson and Gilda Radner's Roseanne Roseannadanna had done in the past.
Gasteyer played Nixon's loyal secretary Rosemary Woods in the Watergate satire "Dick" (1999) and was featured the following year in the provocatively titled comedies "Woman on Top" and "What Women Want".

In "Wicked," portraying flying green animal-rights activist Elphaba, the birdlike Gasteyer can do more with a one-word punch line — especially when the word is "blond" — than most witches could do with a book of potions and a heap of Stephen Schwartz power ballads.
Gasteyer gives the new Chicago edition of this musical a distinct and affecting personality.
Primarily, "Wicked" is a witch musical, playing relentlessly into self-esteem issues of the young and insecure, or the older and insecure who still remember what it was like to be insecure and younger.
