May Isabel Fisk (born Taylor, later Campbell-Johnston; May 22, 1872 – 1955) was an American monologist and writer. Known for her humor in her writing as well as performance, she was a contemporary and friend of Mark Twain, who called her "the only woman humorist in America". She lived in Britain for some years circa 1922 but returned to the United States in 1938.
