Best Answer

Bessie Smith

Billie Holliday

Sarah Vaughn

Dolly Cooper

Ella Fitzgerald

Wendy Rene

Dinah Washington

Helen Humes

Ma Rainy

who ever wrote this list did not know what they were talking about. Billie was from the 30's and 40's. she was born in 1915. Sarah and Dinah were not born till 1924 so they did not preform in the twenties. Ella was born in 1917 and didn't start preforming till the late 30's. and Wendy Rene was a teenage performer in the late 60's. Helen was from the 40's. Dolly was from the 50"s. The question was who are famous 1920's female jazz singers.

Elisabeth Welch Rosa Henderson

Margaret Young Viola McCoy

Marion Harris Ethel Waters

these are but a few because women were not allowed to sing jazz or blues in most places in the 20's.

There were no female jazz singers in the 1920's, only blues singers. There was however one male jazz singer, Louis Armstrong.
