Phyllis Vance

Phyllis Vance

Phyllis Vance (née Lapin) (Phyllis Smith) is a sales representative at the paper distributor Dunder Mifflin. She comes across as a quiet but friendly type who loves "girl talk" and gossip. But underneath her sweet, motherly exterior, she can sometimes be very vindictive and nasty, often to Angela Martin but sometimes even to someone as nice as Pam Halpert. She is often insulted and embarrassed by branch manager Michael Scott, who frequently describes her as non-feminine and old, despite having been classmates with her in high school.
