Joyce Brothers

Dr. Joyce Brothers (1927-2013) was a psychologist who became a major media celebrity and helped bring the idea of psychology into the American mainstream. She was a panelist on What's My Line? during a 1974 guest appearance by Jim Henson and Kermit the Frog. After the reveal, she asks Henson if they're planning to use "the Cookie Monster" to teach nutritional concepts.
In 1990, Dr. Brothers contributed a parenting article to Sesame Street Magazine, "When Your Child Won't Go Out and Play."
Dr. Joyce Brothers hosted multiple television shows offering advice and penned columns and books, as well as being the psychologist in residence on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. The latter helped make her most familiar as a near omnipresent guest star, from Hollywood Squares, The Love Boat, Match Game, and The Great Space Coaster to ALF, Frasier, and The Simpsons.
