Aiken's father, Henry Aiken, was part white. His mother, Bettie, was
able to read and write in the 1870 census, five years after the
abolition of slavery, which suggests she may have been a free woman of
color. Loretta Mabley's genealogist, D. Richmond, wrote: "She has a very
interesting lineage worth researching."
During
the 1920s and 1930s she appeared in androgynous clothing (as she did in
the film version of The Emperor Jones with Paul Robeson) and recorded
several of her early "lesbian stand-up" routines. excerpt: wikipedia

Phyllis Diller used to joke that she had had so much plastic surgery
that God wouldn't recognize her at the pearly gates. The groundbreaking
female comic never met a nip and tuck she didn't like, but surely she
would've been known in heaven as on earth for her wicked drawling jokes
and her cackle of a laugh. And that's just the way she wanted it.
She called herself ugly, and backed that up with a closet full of fright
wigs, garish makeup and shapeless dresses. But the truth was that she
was so good-looking that Playboy canceled her 1960s gag centerfold when
the photos came back. She said the editors found her too sexy for the
feature to work. And when Diller died earlier this year at age 95, Joan
Rivers tweeted that "The only tragedy is that Phyllis Diller was the
last from an era that insisted a woman had to look funny in order to be
funny."
Diller went to work as a comic at her first husband's urging, hoping
that comedy would relieve the strain on their household finances. She
started by performing at PTA meetings, local civic clubs, veterans
hospitals and local radio programs. She sang a little, played the piano
and told a few jokes. She said later that she mined the Dear Abby column
for material. Her trademark laugh arose during her early comedy club
gigs, as a sign of nerves that she couldn't suppress.
In 1992, she spoke about her life in comedy at New York City's 92nd St.
Y, in a rollicking "lecture" that interspersed joke sets with her own
views on death,
religion, aging and happiness. Not exactly the topics that you think
might trigger 12 laughs a minute (as was her serious goal on stage), but
these weighty themes always found a place in Diller's act. "My
definition of comedy," she told her audience, "is tragedy revisited."

Dayton Allen was a comedian and voice actor. He was one of the "men in the street" on the The Steve Allen Show. His catchphrase was "Why not, Bubbe?" (pronounced "whooooyyy not!")
Allen was the voice of various New York-based children's television show characters, appearing on Winky Dink and You as Mr. Bungle for five years, and playing "Phineas T. Bluster", "Flub-a-Dub", and various other puppet characters on Howdy Doody (as well as several "live" characters, including Ugly Sam and Pierre the Chef) for 4 years. Dayton was also the voice of Deputy Dawg, Heckle and Jeckle, Luno, and many early Terrytoons cartoon characters. He continued to be a voiceover performer through the 1990s.
He was best known as the "Why Not?" man when he joined the cast of the NBC Sunday night variety show that Allen began hosting to compete against Ed Sullivan on CBS. The catch-phrase began as a stalling ad-lib to an interview question; then it caught on. Allen used it for television commercials and saw novelty toys, a book and a record spinoff the "Why not?" phenomenon. In its day, fans were shouting "Why not?" as often as Mad Magazine's famous "What? Me Worry?"
His brother, Bradley Bolke, was also a voice actor best known as the voice of Chumley (Tennessee Tuxedo's walrus sidekick) on Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales, and the syndicated version of The Underdog Show. ~Wikipedia
