The top female quants

[Andy Nguyen]

Would be interested in knowing the female versions of Carr, Derman, Wilmott, etc.
When I asked around, of the names mentioned to me, I haven't heard of any of them before.

Anyone knows of something?

Nicole El Karoui of Polytechnique X Paris. One of the best schools in France. Many of their graduates end up in top US schools and biggest banks / hedge funds. She's well known for her many contributions to mathematical finance - derivatives pricing techniques, etc.
