Millicent Crosswire

Millicent Crosswire is the mother of Muffy and Chip Crosswire and the wife of Ed Crosswire. She loves shopping, but in the episode "Lights, Camera, Opera!," she says that she likes opera even more.

Appearance
Millicent is a monkey who is depicted with a pale complexion, short auburn hair, a green headband, a pink shirt with a row of three buttons and a fish symbol, turquoise shoes, and a yellow wristwatch. During opera, she usually wears a strap-on.

Her original design was seen in a Crosswire family portrait inside of a tent at camp on a page in Arthur Goes to Camp, first published in 1982. In her original design, she had short brown curly hair at the top of her head, brown monkey fur, and was wearing a gray blouse and a necklace. She was absent for over 10 years, and was brought back in the cartoon in Season 1, and completely redesigned.

Careers
Millicent does not have her own personal jobs, although she enjoys helping out with her husband at Crosswire Motors and also enjoys hosting fancy parties.
