Deaf Percussionist Evelyn Glennie and Linda Bove, On Sesame Street

Linda Bove, the Deaf Librarian from Sesame street, playing percussion with Evelyn Glennie, Deaf Percussionist.

I found this video after reading this post about deaf actors on soaps.

Evelyn Glennie has been profoundly deaf since age 12, and was the first full-time solo professional percussionist in 20th century western society.

Linda Bove was Linda the Librarian -her role as Linda on Sesame Street is currently the longest recurring role in television history for a deaf person. She also was a guest on Happy Days, and “Search for Tomorrow”.
