Ranker lists the top female comedians from people that have voted on their site…..of course it is based on people who have visited the site so it is not a random sample of people nor even a reflective sample of people (As I have no idea of the demographics of people that visit Ranker) nonetheless it does provide a decent starting point for names of possible “top” comedians of all time.
For me it was a tough choice, but I ended up going with Carol Burnett. I could have easily gone with Madeline Kahn or Cloris Leachman or any other comedians….and even one modern comedian I enjoy…. Margaret Cho.
