Mindy Schneider, a television writer, revealed in her memoir, “Not a Happy Camper” that her mom, wanted her to have a nose job done by the same doctor who did Thomas’.
Schneider recalled that her mom said Thomas, “had a nose job” done by Dr Silver on Madison Avenue. The writer’s mom added, “He gives everyone that little upturned nose. Makes ’em all look like shiksas. You’ll go to someone else. Yours will look real. I’m getting some names.”
