The Ed Sullivan Show with guest Jean Carroll (1960)
A truly BRILLIANT comedy writer (she wrote her own material) and comedienne. A true trailblazer. 20 appearances on Sullivan. She paved the way for so many comediennes, include Phyllis, Joan and Totie. I don't think she ever got the credit she deserved.
I've been catching up on a slew of Ed Sullivan Show excerpts which have been recently downloaded to YouTube. Many feature Jean Carroll's standup comedy - she is outstanding.
