Heather Asch began as a puppet builder on Sesame Street and continued to puppeteer on the series, assisting for many characters such as Baby Bear, and playing Hansel (of Hansel and Gretel) in a future episode. Heather also puppeteers outside of Sesame Street, and has created her own puppetry pieces such as 'Bosom Buddies', which deals with the subject of breast cancer. The performance was seen at Passion For Puppetry, a tribute benefit to Nikki Tilroe in January 2006.
