Diller, Phyllis. (1917–2012) Signed photograph
Diller, Phyllis. (1917–2012). Signed photograph.

Signed portrait of the American comedienne.  By General Artists Corporation.  Inscribed to Paul McMahon.  10.25 x 8 inches (25.9 x 20.3 cm).  Corners slightly bumped; edges browned.

Initially trained as a pianist and then a homemaker for many years, Diller is remembered as one of the first female stand-up comedians in the United States to achieve wide and lasting popularity.  She launched her career at the mature age of 37.  The gay community held her in particularly high esteem.  She also became one of the first champions of plastic surgery.

From the collection of Paul McMahon, a critic, photographer and artist who worked for more than 13 years touring with Marlene Dietrich as the icon’s stage manager, announcer, dresser, secretary and escort, and later spent 25 years as an arts and entertainment reviewer and photographer with Gay Community News, Esplanade, Tommy’s Connection, The Mirror, Bay Windows and other publications.
