Studio Press Pays Tribute to
America's Favorite Funny Lady, Phyllis Diller!
Paper
Studio Press has signed yet another star to add to the impressive roster
of celebrity paper dolls to be published in 2009. Phyllis Diller, the
pioneer female sand-up comic will become a paper doll book created by
top artist, David Wolfe.
The
zany comedienne with the instantly recognizable cackle laugh made show
business history with her breakthrough routines in the mid-1950s when
she appeared on TV programs like The Jack Parr Show. Phyllis
became a popular personality in the 1960s with innumerable guest shots
on TV, comedy albums and many movie roles. Bob Hope was a mentor and
he took her on his tours of military bases during the Vietnam conflict.
Her
wacky appearance was part of the act. Phyllis wore crazy, colorful clothes,
funny bootees, wild hair-dos and wigs. A non-smoker, she always sported
a long cigarette holder. David says he is going to have so much fun
with Phyllis image, a long way from the usual sophisticated glamour
girls he usually paints.
Phyllis
Diller is known as a wildly funny woman. Her hilarious one-liners often
zinged her fictional husband Fang and much of her humor
is self-derogatory. She famously embraced plastic surgery and jokes
about it. However, the funny lady is also a seriously artistic talent
who trained as a concert pianist and has often played with symphonies.
Also a very accomplished fine artist, Phyllis paintings are in
galleries and available on the Internet.
The
Phyllis Diller paper doll book promises to be as much fun as the wonderfully
comic star herself.
