September 24th: Jim Henson! Born on this day in 1936, he is a puppeteer, artist, cartoonist, inventor, actor and director. Best known for creating and voicing Kermit The Frog and the rest of the Muppets, and his work on Sesame Street, he also created Fraggle Rock, The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth. My favorite works that Jim Henson did were The Storyteller series and Dinosaur. What is your favorite Jim Henson creation?
