Biography

[edit]

Hill was born in Berlin-Wedding. Her mother was a nurse, and her father was a subway driver.[2] After finishing her Abitur in 1995,[3] she later studied drama.

Hill had her breakthrough in 2007, as an ensemble member of the ProSieben comedy show Switch reloaded, bringing her recognition as a comedian and impersonator. Her arguably most noticeable parodies were those of persona such as Heidi Klum, Angela Merkel, Daniela Katzenberger, Gundula Gause, Amy Winehouse and Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan.

In 2009, Hill began portraying "universal expert" Tina Hausten and social media influencer Larissa in the heute-show, a German adaptation of the American news satire The Daily Show. From 2011 onwards, Hill starred in her own format, Knallerfrauen, which is a sketch comedy known for sharp humor and its cutting wit. With the first series of Knallerfrauen, Hill also became very popular in China. [4]

In 2019 she became known to an even broader audience in Germany, when she started her own talk-show with a satirical touch. The "Martina-Hill-Schau" has run on SAT1 (along with Pro7 one of the larger, privatized television channels in Germany).[5]

For her commitment in the Heute-Show she was awarded with numerous prizes up to date.
