Buffy appeared on Sesame Street from 1975 to 1981. She first appeared in episode 0802, at the start of Season 7.

Buffy has a husband named Sheldon and a son named Dakota (aka Cody), who was born in Season 8.

When Cody was born, and everybody's attention turned to him, Big Bird shut himself in his nest area, posting a "KEEP OUT! This means you!" sign on his door. Buffy explained to Big Bird, in song, that she loves "different people in different ways."

Buffy breastfed Dakota in one episode; a former Canadian politician recently commented that "I remember seeing that and thinking about how proud she made aboriginal women because nursing is a part of our culture. During those days it was kind of a hidden thing, so to see Buffy doing it on Sesame Street was really something."[1]

In Season 9, most of the Sesame Street gang traveled to Hawaii to visit Buffy and her family, who, at the time, lived there on a Native American reservation.
