A Conversation with Lily Tomlin & Cheryl Swannack (Otis College)

Lily Tomlin talks and laughs with friend Cheryl Swannack at the Opening of "Doin' It In Public" at Otis College of Art and Design. Both were active at the Woman's Building early on. They are joined at the end by Phranc.

Mary Jean "Lily" Tomlin is an American actress, comedienne, writer, and producer. Tomlin has been a major force in American comedy since the late 1960's when she began a career as a stand up comedian and became a featured performer on television's Laugh-in. Her career has spanned television, comedy recordings, Broadway, and motion pictures, enjoying acclaimed success in each medium. She has won many awards including Tony Awards, Emmy Awards, and a Grammy Award and has also been nominated for an Academy Award. Tomlin's humor is often sharp and insightful in the traditions of standup comedians, but also frequently endearing, slightly wacky, and generally quite "family friendly"
