Happy Birthday, Jim Henson

On this date in 1936, Jim Henson was born. It's been nineteen years since we lost him.

Spend some time revisiting his work today, won't you?


Comments:
Thanks for posting this. It reminds of an interview with Henson that I saw where he says that one of his favorite bits is Kermit tap-dancing, because it's such a mixture of performance and sparking the viewer's imagination.
 
I was actually looking for a clip of Kermit dancing to "Happy Feet" when I found this one, now that you mention it. But I didn't know that it was one of Henson's favorites. It doesn't surprise me, though, it's definitely one of mine!
