Alice Dinnean

Alice Dinnean (b. May 23, 1969) is a puppeteer who has performed in many Muppet productions including Sesame Street and Bear in the Big Blue House. She's sometimes credited as Alice Dinnean-Vernon.
Her interest in puppetry began when she received a pig puppet as a prize for winning a local essay contest in Oakland, California. Years later, after a prestigious internship at the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta, Georgia, she auditioned for The Jim Henson Company. Dinnean-Vernon also studied art and creative writing.
She has also puppeteered for several non-Muppet television shows and films, including Men in Black II, Jack's Big Music Show,, Bunnytown, The Country Bears, Crank Yankers, Team America: World Police, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. Most recently, Dinnean has served as an additional puppeteer for the Sesame Street Live! tour throughout 2020, and in Fraggle Rock: The Movie, playing Cotterpin Doozer and assisting Karen Prell in operating her character, Red Fraggle.
