Caroll Spinney Being Honored by Puppets for Puppetry

[D'Snowth]

Matt Vogel posted about this on Facebook this morning, but in May, Puppets for Puppetry will be having a special honor for Caroll Spinney, co-sponsored by the Jim Henson Company and Sesame Workshop, and benefitting the Center for Puppetry Arts.

Great to see Caroll receive the recognition he deserves for all the years he's dedicated to bringing to life two of the most cherished characters of all time.

Congrats to a very underrated (in terms of performances with characters), but very wonderful, puppeteer!

Instagram has lots of wonderful pictures of this event. Apparently, Brian Henson and Joey Mazzarino performed at the event! I wonder if Ryan ran into Kevin and Kevin told him how proud he was of his performances as Elmo.
