Leslie Carrara
From Muppet Wiki
Leslie Carrara-Rudolph began her Muppeteer career on Muppets Tonight, where she played the Pamela Anderson take-off character Spamela Hamderson in the sketch Bay of Pigswatch. She performed Edi in Animal Jam, and started performing on Sesame Street beginning in season 37. Her main Sesame Street character is Abby Cadabby. She is also Prairie Dawn's Mom in Sesame Beginnings.
Carrara puppeteers outside of Sesame Street and the Muppets as well. Her candy-obsessed character, Lolly, performs with her in several clubs and events in New York and LA, as well as working in children outreach programs. Leslie played Miss Poppy, the human kiddie-show star, in the satirical play Pigeon-Holed, written by Sesame writer Annie Evans.
Leslie's husband, Paul Rudolph, served as music coordinator on Muppets Tonight.
Carrara is sometimes credited as Leslie Carrera.
