SNL gets "first blak female" cast in 6 years

Saturday Night Live gets its first female black cast in 6 years. Sasheer Zamata will make her debut on the late-night sketch comedy show on January 18. Sasheer Zamata graduated from the University of Virginia with a drama degree in 2009, according to her official biography.

The lack of race diversity on SNL has been criticized by many. In October SNL cast member Kenan Thompson told TV Guide the show had difficulty finding qualified black female comedians to hire, insisting that the talent pool was limited because so many of the women were not seasoned enough for the job. The executive producer, Lorne Michaels,told The New York Times last month he was holding audition and that a black woman would be added in January.
Zamata's name is one of those floated in media reports, and she is known for her comedy videos online in which she writes and performs.
