Notes |
- Although estranged off and on for more than 25 years, Peg and her husband, Fred, never officially divorced.
Her "New York Times" obituary lists her cause of death as pneumonia as a complication from influenza. However, Anita Loos in her book about the Talmadges written over 40 years after Peg's death, claimed that she died of cancer. Cancer was not mentioned in her "Times" obituary.
Even her daughters called her "Peg" instead of "mother."
Her husband, Fred, a renowned drunk, often left the family for long periods of time. According to 'Anita Loos', his last hiatus started on Christmas day when Norma was seven. He went out for food and never came back. About 20 years later they were driving past a New York City park when Peg identified the drunken vagrant sitting on a bench as Fred. Constance insisted they take him in. Joseph Schenck got him jobs on film crews until his death.
An avid painter, Peg supplemented her meager income during her husband's absences by painting scenes on chinaware and lampshades.
Considered the prototypical Hollywood stage mother, and the most forceful and intimidating of the silent film era.
Famous for her biting wit, some of her more withering comments were used by the character Dorothy in 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.'
Personal quotes
"May God give me strength." Her stock reaction to her daughters' antics.
"She lies! No girl could get that much dirt on her knees in only eighteen years." Doubting the age, among other things, of a chorus girl in the Folies Bergere.
