Rebecca Rea Sugar (born July 9, 1987) is an American animator, screenwriter, producer, director, and musician. She[a] is best known for being the creator of the Cartoon Network series Steven Universe, making her the first non-binary person to independently create a series for the network;[1] prior to coming out as non-binary, Sugar was described as the first woman to do so.[2] Until 2013, Sugar was a writer and storyboard artist on the animated television series Adventure Time. Her work on the two series has earned her seven Primetime Emmy Award nominations.[3] Sugar is bisexual, non-binary, and genderqueer,[4] using both she/her and they/them pronouns.[5] Sugar's queerness has served as the inspiration for her to stress the importance of LGBT representation in the arts, especially in children's entertainment.[6]
