Megan Piphus Peace is the first Black woman puppeteer at Sesame Street in the U.S., voicing the character, Gabrielle.

Megan began teaching herself the art of ventriloquy at the age of 10 when she fell in love with her friends on Sesame Street.

While her previous career in real-estate development was a success, her passion and pursuit for puppetry remained. Megan joined the Sesame Street cast full-time in 2021, and will be bringing her spirit and musical talent to the voice of Gabrielle for the show’s upcoming season. We sat down with her to discuss what Sesame Street viewers can learn from Gabrielle.
