Hey, Everybody! I'm Steve and I'm a Senior Animator at Turner Studios in Atlanta. I was Lead Animator on "Harvey Birdman" for the past 3 years. I've been a Muppet fan for as long as I can remember. I love everything Henson, watched Sesame Street, The Muppet Show, Fraggle Rock, all the Muppet Movies. My future Wife and I actually had our first date at the Center for Puppetry Arts here in Atlanta in '97 and I proposed to her there about a year later. Liz, my wife, is a fantastic puppeteer. She has met Jim Henson at puppet conventions as a teenager and even performed with him in the audience. She made it as far as a Muppet Workshop Audition in NY but was ultimately cut. But, if she had made it, we never would have met. She's fallen away from puppetry after that letdown and I am encouraging her to get back into it. I think I've got the fire rekindled!
I've been listening to the Muppetcast since it started and finally decided to see what goes on around here!
