CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Comedy star Amy Poehler has been named 2015 Woman of the Year by Harvard University’s Hasty Pudding Theatricals.<\/p>\n

The group said Tuesday Poehler’s comedy “fits so well with the Pudding’s own tradition of satire and social commentary.”<\/p>\n

Poehler has a 2014 Golden Globe award and five Emmy nominations for her role as Leslie Knope on the NBC comedy series “Parks and Recreation.” She co-hosts the Globes telecast Sunday with Tina Fey on NBC.<\/p>\n

Hasty Pudding is the nation’s oldest undergraduate drama troupe, dating to the late 18th century. Its annual awards go to performers who have made a lasting and impressive contribution. Last year’s winners were Helen Mirren and Neil Patrick Harris.<\/p>\n

Poehler will get a parade and roast Jan. 29.<\/p>\n

The man of the year will be announced later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
