Best Answer

Carol Channing originated the lead character of Dolly Levi in the 1964 original production of Hello, Dolly!.Although she controversially lost the role to Barbra Streisand in the film version, she later went on to reprise her hit role in the 1978 and 1995 revivals; as well as the 1979 West End production.

Carol has played Dolly the most out of all the character's actresses, and is the most associated with the role - beating out such stars as Ethel Merman, Barbra Streisand (the film actress), Ginger Rogers, and Pearl Bailey.
