Currently, she can be heard worldwide on Comedy Central's hit animated series, South Park, as Wendy Testaberger, Shelly Marsh, Mrs. Cartman, Mrs. Crabtree, Stan's Mom, Principal Victoria, The Mayor, and Kenny's Mom, among others.

Schneider has traversed the globe, collecting over 670 recordings of dialects, several of which are used in her CDs and award-winning multiple character solo shows. Dubbed by the press as the "Queen of Saturday Morning", she has also starred in two CBS Saturday Morning live action television series, the Emmy-Award winning Beakman's World and Howie Mandel's The Amazing Live Sea-Monkeys, for which she also wrote music. She has just completed recording the children's album, 'Rusty, Lulu, and Magical Izzy', which she co-wrote and co-produced with Debi Derryberry and E.G. Daily.

Schneider splits off into hundreds of irate citizens from around the world on hidden camera in several upcoming episodes of NBC's new prime-time series, 'Spy TV', and, in the feature film, 'What Women Want' with Mel Gibson, she is many of the "Women-Who-Want-Things".

The publication of her solo play, "USA 911" won her inclusion in the California Arts Council's Touring Artist's Roster, and a Critic's Award for Outstanding Performance. The play is a 25 character re-enactment of Schneider's 100,000 mile journey throughout America in a converted ambulance, on a mission to define American culture. An alumni of UCLA's World Arts and Cultures Dept. and the Eastman School of Music, Schneider sings and plays violin in several bands, including the critically acclaimed country trio, 'Honeypig', (www.honeypig.com) LA's foremost Jewish punk band, Gefilte Fuck, and the electronic/rock bands 'Electric Skychurch' and 'Blue Girl', a rock-opera/ performance-art piece which won her inclusion in the LA New Times 'Best of LA 2000' issue. She has performed in twenty-seven plays, including the title roles in Antigone (Chicago) and Agnes of God (New York), and she has directed two. She is currently collaborating with Robert Easton on the publication of her exhaustive dialect research, and her websites, designed by Dave Johnson at 3rdkynd, www.elizaschneider.com and www.bluegirl.org, have won Abby awards for the past two years.
