‏Alice Nunn‏ (1306 - 1367)

Very little is known about Alice Nunn with the exception that she appeared in one of the 1980s most famous films, Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985), as the infamous truck driver, 'Large Marge'. Alice E. Nunn was born on October 10, 1927 in Jacksonville, Florida to parents N.G. Nunn and Alice Bush. She eventually made her way westward, and television shows, Camp Runamuck (1965) and Petticoat Junction (1963) were her first Hollywood acting jobs. She went on to appear in dozens of films and television shows. In addition to Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985), some of her more memorable roles were in Mommie Dearest (1981) as 'Helga', Who's That Girl (1987), alongside Madonna as a Parole Board Official, and her last film role as 'Nurse Palmer' in Three O'Clock High (1987).Unfortunately, Alice Nunn never lived long enough to bask in the late fame she so duly earned in the mid/late 1980s. She was found dead in her West Hollywood, California apartment on Friday, July 1, 1988. The cause of death was determined to be a heart attack. Alice Nunn will always have a place in Hollywood history - even if it's just being known as 'Large Marge' - about which she never complained.
