The Simpsons makes history by hiring John Autry as its first-ever deaf voice actor

The actor also remarked that his appearance on the program would likely serve to improve the image of deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals in the entertainment industry.

'This can impact change for all of us. It's about hard-of-hearing and hearing characters coming together. It's a part of history,' he said. Loni said: 'I was an early viewer of CODA and really admire the movie. There are themes in it that are somewhat echoed here, coming out of a sibling relationship.'

'CODA has the tension between music and the deaf experience. I think it's great, because the deaf experience isn't just one story, there are so many stories to be told,' she said. 'The Sound of Bleeding Gums was in development long before CODA came on the scene and won the Oscar last month, but there's serendipity in the timing,' he stated.She told the media outlet: 'I'm mixed race; my father's black and jazz was big in our house.'
