No, she hasn't died, but I wondered whatever happened to the frequent Letterman and Carson guest. Robin Williams saw her in 1984 and became a booster, he had her on SNL when he hosted, and ultimately she won 1989 Best Female Stand-Up Comic award. She began serving as a foster parent in the 1990s, and fostered 8 children and adopted 3, but in 2001 she was arrested and charged with felony child endangerment due to driving while intoxicated with her children in the car. She was also charged with three counts of lewd acts on girl younger than 14. She ended up accepting a plea bargain that had the lewd acts charges dropped and replaced with a misdemeanor inflicting injury on a child, was barred from accepting foster children ever again, sentenced to 5 years probation and 6 months of rehab and submit to random drug and alcohol tests. Remarkably, she has continued to work throughout.
