Some people would recognize Phyllis from her appearance as Jane in Tarzan against the Lion Kingdom, wearing the sort of costume that caused Will Hays to create his infamous Code. She did her own stunts, and was perhaps the best thing in a movie that wouldn't win any awards except maybe 'lowest budget for a Tarzan movie'.

Her wavy blonde hair is worn long and loose, deliberately avoiding the usual fashionable short hairstyles to get attention and remind some people of her movie. Her hair contrasts with her dark eyebrows.

She has an athletic figure, with barely concealed muscles, and moves with casual grace. She dresses in understated style rather than the most up-to-date fashions.
