Comedian Kathy Griffin brings her blunt, fiery, riotous and rapid-fire wit to the Waikiki Shell for a 7:30 p.m. performance May 24.

The Emmy Award-winning Chicago native had a four-year stint on the NBC sitcom, "Suddenly Susan," and has amassed a string of guest appearances on such varied shows as "ER" and "Seinfeld." She also has voiced a roster of animated series, including "Dilbert" and "The Simpsons," and has been a talk show staple including "The View," "Tonight Show" and "Howard Stern." She also soared on her "HBO Half Hour Comedy Special."

Reality aficionados know her for her three-year run on Bravo's "Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List," which has been renewed for a fourth season.
