Meryl Streep

Just a few that come to mind.
Dang, writing, I knew I was forgetting
Yes, Emily Dickinson - favorite female poet
Also JK Rowling, Octavia Butler Amy Tan
 
Anne Bogart - theatre/director
Maggie Smith - theatre/actor
Pina Bausch - dance/choreography
Sylvia Guillame- dance/performance
Frida Kahlo - visual art
Ana Duvernay - film/director
Jessica Lange - film/actor
Bjork- music

Love Lange.
 
Love Lange.
Bob fosse has a great anecdote about his breakup with JLange - he was pretty sure she was seeing someone else and said ‘the guy might be better looking and richer than me, but at least I’m a better dancer’ the paramour wound up being mikhail Baryshnikov

Aside from possibly being the best actress, She might have, pound for pound, the most talented cadre of exes- #1 dancer, #1 bway choreographer/ director, and probably top 5 american playwright in Sam Shepherd
 
I respect Harper Lee for not writing another novel.

To Kill a Mockingbird was near perfection.

How could she top it?

Go Set a Watchman doesn't count.
 
No Linda Ronstadt?
Stevie
Debbie Harry
Tina Tuner
Madonna
Donna Summer
Janet Jackson
Adelle
Britney
Dolly Parton
Shania
Olivia Newton
Sheryl Crow
Leanne Rimes
Pat Benatar
Janis Ian
Heck, pretty much all of them with a few exceptions. I like female artists.

I like many of those. Good list.

There is something about the female voice.

But I really love them if they write their own music.

Adele is pretty special.

I bought ingenue when it came out in the 90's having never heard it. I was floored. I love women's voices.


I posted this on another thread months back, but I don't think anyone will sue me.

This is my favorite of her. My ex and I used to sing it together.

Badly.
