Frances Oznowicz is an elderly woman from Great Falls, Montana. She appeared as a contestant in one of Sesame Street's many game shows, "The Addition Game." Her fifteen minutes of fame, however, took a back seat to Herry Monster's efforts to confirm a mathematical equation presented to him earlier in the show. As Herry hauls four vehicles into the studio, crashing each of them violently through a wall, Frances cowers in fear behind host Guy Smiley.
The majority of her dialogue in this brief appearance is provided by Frank Oz. One short line at the end of the sketch was by Jim Henson, spoken amongst the chaos of several unhappy motorists.
