The Bert and Ernie debate has resurfaced in light of the recent interview with former Sesame Street writer Mark Saltzman, in which he talks about writing the pair as a gay couple. If you recall, I’ve already written the definitive analysis of this whole “controversy”, which is even more relevant today. Enjoy!
Thinking of Richard Hunt on what would have been his 67th birthday. Celebrating his life by working on his biography. Thank you, sir, for your work. 
A bunch of puppeteers hanging out in the woods: That’s basically all I know about the annual Eugene O’Neill puppetry conference before I visit, but that’s enough for me, especially with Muppet performer Pam Arciero as its Artistic Director. I trust that I’ll find what I think of as a Jim Henson-inspired work environment: playful, respectful, collaborative, creative – and mind-bogglingly productive. And I trust that even the briefest visit will be good for my own work. 
Today is the anniversary of Richard Hunt’s death; in commemoration, I am releasing the introduction to his biography. I hope it helps to keep his memory alive. -
