Remembering Phyllis Diller

A look back through the life of one of America's legendary comediennes.

The "pickets" are students at a school for hairdressers and beauticians, professing to be fearful that Phyllis\' hairstyles on TV and in a new movie may set a trend toward unkempt hair with little need for their services.
