Amy Sedaris Gets Bossy for Her New Role and Talks Brothers, Bunnies and Babies

Sedaris, 60, who was raised alongside three sisters and two brothers — including acclaimed author David Sedaris — says she loved growing up in a big family and remains close to her siblings.

“I’m happiest when I’m with my family,” says Sedaris. “We were like the Munster house. Kids in our neighborhood wanted to play at our house, but we were exclusive. We all have the same sense of humor. We still are a very close family.”

“When we were little, I had an imaginary cooking show with my brother David and a fakePrice Is Rightshow,” she says. “We were always putting on shows.”

These days the pair still enjoy spending time together. “We’re always laughing and bouncing ideas off each other. We go to the park and feed squirrels. I’m into woodland creatures. I like small animals.”

But Sedaris' favorite animal is her pet bunny, Tina, who is actually a male rabbit.

“When I got him, I thought it was a girl,” she says. “But lately, I see Tina nodding off a lot. I’m like, ‘Oh, you’re now turning into grandpa taking extra naps and growing a little grumpy.'”
