Belated birthday wish for the late Jim Henson, a gifted and talented man with an imaginative heart that I so very much admired.

September 24, 1936: Jim Henson was fascinated with puppets from childhood—he was just 18 when he debuted his puppets on local TV. Henson voiced some of his most famous characters: Ernie, Rowlf the Dog, and, of course, Kermit the Frog. He was born 77 years ago today.
