杰西卡·威廉姆斯在22岁时加入了《每日秀》,她成为了有史以来加入《每日秀》最年轻的记者。现在4年过去了,26岁的她又成为了最年轻的离开者。她表示在这4年中她在工作中学到了很多。
I feel so many emotions. I started The Daily Show when I was 22. I was going to class at Long Beach. When I found out [that I got the job], I was in the cafeteria at Panda Express. I thought I was going to be hired as a contributor, but The Daily Show was like, “Nah, it’s an election year, we want you to come over here and work full-time.” So I said, “Okay, well hold on, I need to do my finals first.” [Laughs] I picked up everything and moved out of my parents’ house and into New York City. I feel like I’ve learned a lot about myself on the show. I’m 26 now. I’ve learned so much, I always kind of feel like it’s grad school — a sort of continuation of my education.
