life and career

Mink Stole was born Nancy Paine Stoll as one of ten children into a Catholic family in Baltimore. She came into the film business through her friend, director John Waters . With the exception of Waters' early shorts Hag in a Black Leather Jacket , Eat Your Makeup and The Diane Linkletter , Mink Stole subsequently appeared in all of his films up to his last A Dirty Shame from 2004. That puts her next to Mary Vivian Pearcethe only actress to appear regularly in Waters' radical early works as well as in his later, more mainstream Hollywood films. For Waters she was mostly seen in bizarre roles, for example as the red-haired, exotic-looking villain in Pink Flamingos , as the missionary daughter who was finally strangled by her film mother Divine in Female Trouble (1974), as a mad and murderous housewife in Desperate Living ( 1977) as well as the secretary that Divine hangs out her husband in Polyester (1981). In Waters' later films, Mink Stole's roles were mostly smaller, but still distinctive - like the neighbor terrorized by Kathleen Turner's perverted phone calls in Serial Mom - Why doesn't mom let the killing? (1994).

Since the 1990s, Mink Stole can also be seen regularly in the films of other directors, most of which were independent productions . On television, she has had recurring roles in the series What's Up With Alex Mack? and Spyder Games . To date she has appeared in over 60 film and television productions, and has appeared on stage several times, for example as a female Van Helsing in Dracula . She is also the singer of the band Mink Stole and Her Wonderful Band .
