Comedian. Actor. Musician. Advocate. Entrepreneur. Five-time Grammy and Emmy nominee. Margaret Cho’s strong voice has been lighting the path for other women, other members of underrepresented groups, and other performers to follow.
Her recent television appearances - a guest star on Season 2 of The Flight Attendant (HBO Max), a guest star on Season 2 of Hacks (HBO Max), and two Netflix is a Joke comedy specials (Stand Out: An LGBTQ+ Celebration and Jane Fonda & Lily Tomlin: Ladies Night Live) - have expanded an already wide-ranging career.
Cho’s role as the ‘mother hen’ in the well-reviewed movie Fire Island solidifies why we all love her in the first place. As a comedian, Cho has been named one of Rolling Stone magazine's 50 Best Stand-Up Comics of All Time, one of Vogue magazine’s Top 9 Female Comedians of all time, while CNN chose her as one of the 50 People Who Changed American Comedy.
