Phoebe Augustine
Phoebe Ellen Ceresia (known professionally as Phoebe Augustine) is an American actress.
Career
She is best known for her role as Laura Palmer's friend Ronette Pulaski in the original 1990 series Twin Peaks, whose pilot episode featured an iconic scene of her walking across train tracks, and the 1992 prequel movie Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
She is also known for her roles in two short-lived but notable sitcoms from the early 90s: The Elvira Show and Frannie's Turn. Around the same time, she also appeared in the TV movie Black Widow Murders: The Blanche Taylor Moore Story. She was also a musician/singer in the band "Cling".[8][9]
After a break of many years, she returned to acting in 2017, working again with David Lynch on the Twin Peaks revival, Twin Peaks: The Return, playing "American Girl" in Part 3, a mysterious entity that may or may not be related to her previous role as Ronette.[10][11][12]
