Penny Marshall: Revealed by her Double Birth Order


                               Penny  Marshall

The entertainment world lost Carole Penny Marshall 
December 17, 2018. We all knew her as Laverne in the 
TV sitcom Laverne & Shirley but did you really know 
a her? Her Double birth order will reveal the real Penny 
Marshall.

A Family of Double Birth Orders
When children in a family are spaced four or more years 
apart they add the Only birth order to their birth number. 
This addition of the Only child’s characteristics powers 
up their individual birth orders it magnifies and intensifies 
their personalities. In the Marshall family Gary was born in 
1934, then Ronell in 1938, last was Penny in 1943. Gary 
was a 1/Only, Ronell is a 2/Only and Penny a 3/Only.

Artistic Roots
Penny’s father, Anthony Marshall was an industrial film 
director. Her mother Marjorie, a tap dance teacher. Both 
her older brother Gary and Sister Ronny went into the film 
making industry. Penny would follow them years later.

The Three/Only Birth Order
The Three birth order is the most sensitive of all the birth 
orders. Laughing on the outside but crying on the inside 
describes them best. Her friend Cindy Miller said she was 
like a barbecued marshmallow, crispy on the outside and 
the most mushy marshmallow on the inside.Threes rarely 
let you see inside as they develop a protective wall 
around themselves. When you add the Only birth order 
you magnify all these traits. Penny was nothing like her 
older siblings. Combining the Three Birth order with the 
Only gives the recipient the “Drama Queen” label. They 
understand all those around them but events in their own 
lives are always dramatic.  She was known in her family 
as the “bad one,” walking out on the ledge of their 
apartment, sneaking into movies, and getting pregnant 
while in college. She married the father only to get 
divorced two years later. She married Rob Reiner in 
1971 divorced in 1980.

Penny the Director
Her directing career started in 1986 with Jumpin’ Jack Flash,
 Big in 1988 with Tom Hanks who shared her #3 birth order. 
This film made her the first woman director to have a film 
grossing over 100 million dollars. In 1992 she directed 
A League of Their Own which also grossed over 100 million. 
As a director she used her innate birth order talent to 
understand just how to reach her actors. 

Additive Personality
The #3 birth order has a greater possibility of addiction? They
 are open to the world around them but sometimes not strong 
enough to resist. Cigarettes was one of her addictions as was 
cocaine, marijuana and Quaaludes. She gave up all of them 
except her cigarettes after her cancer treatment.

Quotes and Friends
What defines you are the subtle things; who are your friends 
and what do you say. Your friends tend to be your birth order. 
Suzanne Somers a Three/Only helped Penny during her 
cancer treatment. She was also friends with Rosie O’Donnell 
another #3. Penny has said, “I have the strange combination 
of fearlessness and massive insecurity.” “My brother and 
sister were much older. I was called the mistake, amongst 
other things.” “I wasn’t a girly girl; I was a tomboy.” This 
last quote sums it up, “I’ll try anything. What are they gonna 
do, kick me out of show business?” Show business and the 
public will miss her.
