Although her name may not immediately ring a bell, Phyllis Davis was a fairly prominent actor who worked in film and television from the late ‘60s until the early ‘90s. If you do recognize her, it’s probably because of her role in the late ‘70s crime drama Vega$, or maybe it was from one of her numerous appearances on The Love Boat and Fantasy Island.
Growing up in Texas, Davis knew at a very young age that she did not want to make the same career choice as most of her family, where her father, mother, and two brothers all worked as morticians.
