Phyllis Ada Driver; born July 17, 1917 is an American actress and comedienne. She created a stage persona of a wild-haired, eccentrically-dressed housewife who makes jokes about a husband named Fang while pretending to smoke from a long cigarette holder. Diller's trademark is her unusual laugh.
Phylles Diller was born to Perry Marcus Driver and the former Frances Ada Romshe, in Lima, Ohio. Diller attended Lima's Central High School, then studied for three years at Sherwood Music Conservatory in Chicago, Illinois. She then transferred to Bluffton College in Bluffton, Ohio, where she met fellow Lima-ite and classmate, Hugh Downs.
