Painter of the "Big Eyes" paintings popular in the 1950s and 60s that depicted children with very large eyes. At the time, her then-husband Walter Keane claimed to be the artist but Margaret came forward years later and eventually won a lawsuit against Walter that culminated in a "paint-off" in which you painted a sketch in a few minutes for the jury while her ex-husband claimed to have a bad shoulder. Her story became the Tim Burton movie "Big Eyes," with Amy Adams playing Margaret and Christoph Waltz playing Walter.
Age 94.
