She is best known as Lady Aberlin on Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. Life and career{{more citations needed|section|date=June 2017}}Born Betty Kay Ageloff in New York City, Aberlin grew up in a Jewish family[2][3] and attended public schools in Queens and Staten Island. She graduated from Bennington College, having studied art, modern dance, and literature with Howard Nemerov and Bernard Malamud. She made her debut at the Phoenix Theatre in 1954 in Sandhog, a folk-opera by Waldo Salt and Earl Robinson. Aberlin had a regular role as "Lady Aberlin" for 33 years on the children's television series Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. She also appeared on The Smothers Brothers Show (1975)[5] and various TV spots. For a short period of time, using the name Betty Aberlin, she did a late night radio show on WYEP-FM in Pittsburgh, a station she helped found. The program featured jazz, comedy, and some spoken arts and poetry. The radio station was (and still is) a non-commercial, community supported station for progressive music, arts, and public affairs. Monthly station program guides of the time, the station's mission statement support this statement. She wrote and performed a sequence for The 90's, "Stop Me Before I Love Again", in a theme show on growing older, which aired on PBS.{{citation needed|reason=resh Yarn | date=September 2018}} Later in her career, Aberlin formed a kinship with Kevin Smith[4] and appeared in a number of his films, including Dogma (1999), Jersey Girl (2004), Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008), and Red State (2011).[1] Aberlin played back-up singer Cheryl and later starred as Heather in the 1978 Joseph Papp production of Cryer & Ford's I'm Getting My Act Together and Taking it on the Road at the New York Shakespeare Festival's Public Theater in New York and on the road.[5] Aberlin played Meryl Streep's sister in Liz Swados' "Alice in Concert",[6] based on "Alice in Wonderland", both at the Public Theater and in a television version, "Alice at the Palace".[7] WritingsAs a contributor to the literary web site "Fresh Yarn", Aberlin's essay, The Blonding of America, was published in 2005. In the essay, Aberlin comments on privilege and physical appearance. The point of departure for her reflection is the purchase of a blonde wig to hide her first gray hairs. Wearing the wig, Aberlin is aware of how it erases racial or ethnic features and how her new look evokes a more glamorous feminine stereotype. She observes how this change to her appearance effects a change of consciousness: "I put [the wig] on, and I don't even notice the homeless anymore." She concludes the essay: "Later on that evening, I saw a yellow school bus, filled with Chasidim. On the sooty back window of the bus, someone had drawn a swastika. I'll tell you...it certainly feels a little safer....being blonde."[11] In 2008, Aberlin published a collection of poems, The White Page Poems, as a companion to A Book of Strife, in the Form of the Diary of an Old Soul, an 1880 collection of poems by George MacDonald. The original edition of McDonald's book had a blank page opposite each poem.[8] In popular cultureMusician Jonathan Coulton wrote the song "Lady Aberlin's Muumuu" about Aberlin's Mister Rogers character.[13] References1. ^1 {{IMDb name|0008640}} [9][10][11]2. ^{{cite web |url= http://billmadison.blogspot.com/2009/03/interview-betty-aberlin.html | title=Interview:Betty Aberlin | last=Madison | first=Bill | date=March 22, 2009 | website=Billevesees | publisher= |access-date=October 14, 2018 | quote=}} 3. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.freshyarn.com/2/essays/aberlin_blonding.htm | title=The Blonding of America | last=Aberlin | first=Betty | date= |website=Fresh Yarn | publisher= |access-date= |quote=}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=https://player.fm/series/sminterview/004-betty-aberlin|title=004: Betty Aberlin (Interview)|last=Smith|first=Kevin|date=12 August 2011|website=SMinterview with @thatkevinsmith (Podcast)|series=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2018-07-05}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.lortel.org/Archives/Production/2521|title=I'm Getting My Act Together and Taking It On the Road - Lortel Archives|website=www.lortel.org|language=en|access-date=2018-07-05}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.simplystreep.com/content/career/stage/1980aliceinconcert.html|title=Simply Streep - Career - Stage Productions - Alice in Concert|website=www.simplystreep.com|access-date=2018-07-05}} 7. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.simplystreep.com/content/career/television/1982aliceatthepalace.html|title=Simply Streep - Career - Television - Alice at the Palace|website=www.simplystreep.com|access-date=2018-07-05}} 8. ^{{Cite book|title=The Diary of an Old Soul & the White Page Poems|last=McDonald|first=George|last2=Aberlin|first2=Betty K.|publisher=Zossima Press|year=2008|isbn=0972322140|location=Wayne, Pennsylvania|pages=}} 9. ^1 New Song – Lady Aberlin’s Muumuu 10. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.freshyarn.com/pastcontributors.htm |title=Fresh Yarn * The Online Salon for personal essays * PAST CONTRIBUTORS |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=October 13, 2013}} 11. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.freshyarn.com/2/essays/aberlin_blonding.htm |title=FRESH YARN presents The Blonding of America... by Betty Aberlin |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=October 13, 2013}} }} External links
