Phyllis Newman made her Broadway debut in 1952, when she was 19. Just a few years later she won a Tony award for Best Featured ACtress in a Musical. More awards came her way, and she was soon in demand on Broadway and in television.

But off screen, in the mid-1980s, she faced her biggest life challenge: she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

In this 1988 interview Newman recounts her fight to beat the cancer.
