==Early life== Talmadge was born on April 19, 1898, in [[Brooklyn, New York]], to poor parents, Margaret L. "Peg" and Frederick O. Talmadge. Her father was an [[alcoholism|alcoholic]], and left them when she was still very young. Her mother made a living by doing laundry. When a friend recommended Talmadge's mother use older sister Norma as a model for title slides in flickers,{{clarify|reason=What are flickers?|date=January 2023}} which were shown in early [[Nickelodeon (movie theater)|nickelodeons]], Peg decided to do so.
