What is Funny Ladies : the Women Who Make Us Laugh about?

From Fanny Brice to Lucille Ball to Sandra Bernhard, women have kept America laughing through the century. Now, for the first time, a noted show-business journalist takes a look at these talented comediennes-and shows how they've shaped our tastes and tickled our funny bones. Packed with anecdotes, jokes, and shticks-not to mention 115 rich duotone pictures-Funny Ladies profiles more than 75 famous funny women, in cluding Mae West, Gracie Allen, Carole Lombard, Judy Holliday, Rosalind Russell, Elaine May, Carol Burnett, Anne Meara, Lily Tomlin, Bette Midler, Whoopi Goldberg, Tracey Ullman, Rosie O'Donnell, and Cameron Diaz, among many others. For humor hounds, stage and movie fans, and nostalgia buffs everywhere, this one-of-a-kind tribute will be a must.
