Kathryn Mullen joined the Muppets in 1978, starting with The Muppet Movie, [1] and became the third full-time female puppeteer on The Muppet Show (after Eren Ozker and Louise Gold). Prior to becoming a puppeteer, she had aspired to become an actress, and did not join the Puppeteers of America until after a visit to the Muppet Workshop.[2]

Mullen started out with mostly background characters, but advanced to performing major roles on Fraggle Rock, where she played Mokey Fraggle and Cotterpin Doozer, among others.

Mullen later worked on The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss, and was one of the creators and performers of Between the Lions. In 2004, she and husband Michael Frith worked with No Strings International to create and perform an educational puppet show for children in Afghanistan. She was also one of the writers on Little Muppet Monsters.
