Jill Bartlett plays Denise, the repair shop’s beleaguered receptionist in Comedy Central's "American Body Shop."

Bartlett was raised in Highland, Indiana and attended Valparaiso University on a softball scholarship. (She plays a mean shortstop.) After graduating with a degree in communications and theater, she moved to Chicago where she studied at Second City and Improv Olympic. She has performed in numerous stage productions, including a lead role in "The Vagina Monologues" at The Apollo Theater.

Upon moving to Los Angeles, Bartlett joined the sketch comedy troupe, "Dry Hump." The cast includes many of her old Chicago friends. Notable television appearances include NBC’s "Las Vegas," Lifetime’s "Lovespring International" and MTV’s "Punk’d."
