Susan Yeagley had a lead role in Christopher Guest's latest feature, Mascots. The film is a parody set amidst world of professional mascots; Susan and Parker Posey play competitive sisters who are both mascots themselves.
She is often known for her role playing "Jessica Wicks" in NBC's comedy Parks and Rec. Prior to that she recurred in the FOX comedy Til Death for several seasons.
Born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, at a young age Susan realized she didn't have the voice to become a country singer, so she opted to become an actress. At the age of ten she won an acting role in an Amy Grant music video. For compensation she was paid twenty-five dollars (cash) plus an Amy Grant album. She still has that twenty-five dollars but they are not the original bills.
Susan graduated from USC Film School with honors and went on to become a member of the prestigious 'Sunday Company - Groundlings Improv Group.' It was during that stint that a casting director saw her perform and cast her in her first film role, Cameron Crowe's Almost Famous. Her list of other film credits include the Coen brother's Intolerable Cruelty, Coyote Ugly, Neil Berger's The Lucky Ones and Blended (Adam Sandler).
Susan was voted one of "Ten Comedians to Watch" by the Daily Variety and they honored her with a trophy and a chicken dinner.
Susan resides in Los Angeles with her husband and son, although her heart will always be in Nashville.
