Why Pee-wee Herman icon Paul Reubens kept his cancer battle quiet

Quote
Mark Holton, who played Francis Buxton in "Pee-wee’s Big Adventure" called
his co-star Paul Reubens a "good man" on "Fox Across America." Holton
agreed with radio host Jimmy Failla that Reuben's desire to bring joy and
positivity into the world fueled his quiet battle with cancer. Reubens, better
known as Pee-wee Herman, died at age 70 Monday after a six-year fight with
cancer.

i'm almost positive the first time i remember seeing him act was at the Midnight Movie Madness (Fri & Sat nights in Charlotte) in Cheech & Chong's Nice Dreams (1981).

Many years later, when my daughters were watching Pee-Wee's Playhouse, it was a bit weird seeing him as Pee Wee.
