'SNL' producer Lindsay Shookus leaves show after 20 years: 'Forever grateful'
Lindsay Shookus has left her longtime role as a producer on NBC's "Saturday Night Live." On Friday, the 42-year-old six-time Emmy Award winner took to Instagram to announce her exit from the show. "After 20 seasons at Saturday Night Live (and 415 live shows - i counted!), I have decided to trade in the wild late night life and move on from the show," she wrote in a lengthy caption of a photo of herself on set. Shookus continued, "When I started in 2002, I was a baby from Buffalo, NY who didn’t know anything about the business, except that I so badly wanted to be somehow part of it. I found my place at SNL and I’ve spent the past two decades developing the most incredible friendships and memories alongside some truly brilliant and talented people." The New York native added that she had met her ex-husband and former "SNL" producer Kevin Miller, with whom she shares a daughter, Maddie, through her work on the show.
