She is one of the most beloved female performers in the history of Sesame Street, and the National Academy is proud to be honoring her with our prestigious Emmy Award for Lifetime Achievement.” "Honoring Sonia Manzano has a special meaning for me - as we both started our professional careers doing the play, Godspell, though in different casts when we were practically children," said David Michaels, SVP, Daytime (NATAS). "Her talent both in front of the camera and as a writer, bringing the themes of diversity to a national audience on Sesame Street, is an extraordinary achievement worthy of this well-earned recognition!"

    SUBSCRIBE 93° as low as $0.99 LOG IN HOME / ENTERTAINMENT / BOOKS & LITERATURE advertisement Resize text A A A BOOKS Manzano of ‘Sesame Street’ reveals tumultuous youth in ‘Becoming Maria’ Posted: 12:00 a.m. Friday, Sept. 18, 2015 By Sharyn Vane ­ Special to the American­Statesman Sonia Manzano remembers trembling from her father’s outbursts. She remembers asking her mother if their family was poor and finding tiny roaches in her fruit cocktail. But she also remembers the magical day when she figured out how to read. + SESAME STREET/PBS Elmo and Sonia Manzano chat on “Sesame Street.” She was riding on the subway with her sister Aurea, begging her to read the signs for her. Cranky, Aurea snapped that she should read them herself. “I look at the letters in the signs and in one split second the words fall into place and I am reading. I’m reading!” Manzano writes in her revealing new memoir, “Becoming Maria: Love and Chaos in the South Bronx” (Scholastic, $17.99). “But I don’t say anything to Aurea. I can read and I don’t want anyone to know my secret weapon, and suddenly I can’t wait for summer to end and second grade to begin.” It was one of the bright spots of childhood for Manzano — better known to millions of “Sesame Street” viewers as Maria. Manzano, 65, retired earlier this year after more than four decades playing Maria on the beloved PBS television series, eventually winning 15 Emmys for her writing for the show. + “Becoming Maria: Love and Chaos in the South Bronx,” by Sonia Manzano She appears in Austin on Sept.
