A pioneer in the world of comedy writing, Beatts is probably best known for her five-year run as a writer on the early days of Saturday Night Live, where, as one of the few women on the show’s writing staff, she helped craft any number of classic characters and sketches.

(Like many of the early SNL writers, Beatts served as a writer on Radner’s 1980 one-man show Gilda Live.) Beatts wrote for SNL for the entirety of the original Lorne Michaels tenure on the series, creating characters like Todd and Lisa Lupner (a.k.a. The Nerds), Buck Henry’s deeply unsettling “Uncle Roy,” and Fred Garvin, Male Prostitute.
