(Carleton LPX 5001, 1960). In 1970, she wrote the book "Nose Jobs for Peace", published by Prentice-Hall ( )  By the 1960s and 1970s, Diamond was familiar as a frequent guest on "The Jack Paar Show" and "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson", and she made numerous film appearances, including Stanley Kramer's comedy "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" (as the unseen telephone voice of Spencer Tracy's wife, Ginger Culpepper), "Bang the Drum Slowly" (as hotel switchboard operator Tootsie), and "All of Me" (as Margo). In 1982, she appeared in "My Favorite Year" with a memorable small role as wardrobe mistress for "King Kaiser's Comedy Calvalcade", a fictional show which clearly echoed the time and venue of her work for Sid Caesar. She was also a semi-regular for four seasons of the Ted Knight comedy series "Too Close For Comfort". For many years, Diamond resided in a co-op apartment at 60 Sutton Place South in Manhattan until she moved out in the late 1970s. The diminutive Diamond, who was a chain smoker, was one of the original cast of "Night Court" until she was stricken with lung cancer and died at age 64 in Los Angeles. She was buried in Hillside Memorial Park in Culver City, Los Angeles County, California. By tragic coincidence, her successor playing the bailiff, Florence Halop, was also lost to lung cancer after her one year in the cast of "Night Court".
