being elmo :: a puppeteer's journey


wow.
this movie is amazing.
i have always loved sesame street,
the muppets, and jim henson.
now, i also love kevin clash.

i knew {from reading the credits of everything i watch}
that kevin clash was the human behind elmo, 
but i had no idea who he was
or how he got there.

his story is so inspirational.
i do remember trying to step through
our tv screen right onto sesame street.
and, this man did it.

you might be intersted to know that
princess diana
AND
captian kangaroo
AND
oprah
are in this movie.

Nate was just telling us about this yesterday (which was also Adam's 18th birthday)! Gotta see it!

I want to see it! I hadn't heard of it before, so thanks for letting us know!
I can identify with that feeling of wanting to work on a children's TV show.
I loved Capt. Kangaroo and Princess Diana. . .also Shari Lewis. I have a talking lambchop puppet.
