RIP to a legend. Just one snip from the article:

Influenced by vintage kids’ shows like “Captain Kangaroo,” the artistically groundbreaking “Pee-wee’s Playhouse” won several Emmys and featured colorful postmodernist set design and music from New Wave icons like Mark Mothersbaugh, Cyndi Lauper and the Residents, along with guest stars including Laurence Fishburne, Natasha Lyonne and Jimmy Smits.

How long has Natasha Lyonne been acting? Every time I think I know what her earliest role was, I read something like this and find out she was actually even younger when she started acting.
