Julia (Sesame Street)
Julia is a four-year-old girl on the children's television program Sesame Street who has autism. She is a yellow Anything Muppet with orange hair and green eyes who wears a dark dress shirt over light pink t-shirt and green pants with white flowers on them and black shoes. She premiered on the show on April 10, 2017, though she was introduced in “digital form” in 2015.[1] Her debut marks a new phase of Sesame Workshop’s autism awareness initiative, “Sesame Street and Autism: See Amazing in All Children”, which provides resources “designed to serve autistic children and their families”.[2] The role of Julia is performed by puppeteer Stacey Gordon, whose son has autism.[3]
