The quasar PHL 1070 and its surrounding halo of light have been observed with the Palomar multichannel spectrophotometer using circular and annular apertures. The central quasar has a magnitude of 16.6 and an emission-line redshift of 0.076 + or - 0.002. The halo light has a magnitude of 19.0 and a possible absorption-line system with an absorption redshift of 0.067 + or - 0.008. The magnitude, possible absorption lines, and probable spectral energy distribution of the halo are consistent with those of a normal galaxy at the redshift of the quasar.
