IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Always caring about children, and always acting on it ... while that phrase has taken many different forms, it's been an ongoing description of Kathy Parker's life, both personally and professionally.

From special education teacher (Burton, MI & Otisville, MI, '76-'81) to early childhood product manager (DLM, Inc. Allen, TX, '81-'87), to "Barney and Friends®" ('88-'94), and beyond ('95-present) ... she has dedicated her life to making a positive difference in the lives of children and their families.
