“Real men are not afraid of real moments,” says Poehler, cackling. “That’s the name of my memoir. It’s about me. Just me … With a strange man on the cover.”

“Amy can pretty much curse any of the dudes on the show under the table,” says Michael Schur, executive producer and co-creator of Parks and Recreation.

Schur says of Poehler "If she were just a writer, she’d be the best writer on staff, and if she were just an actress, she’d be the best actress in the cast. And if she were just a mom, she’d be the best mom in America.” But how would she fare as a photo editor?

“Okay, guys, Photoshop the shit out of this,” says Poehler, laughing, as the shoot wrapped.
