Bio of the Muppetmaster

All the millennium craziness has yielded plenty of retrospectives and media specials, not least of which is the Time 100, a survey of the "Most Important People of the 20th Century," which features the ingenious and inimitable Jim Henson. Having cut my teeth on the Muppet Show, Sesame Street, and numerous Henson movies (remember "The Dark Crystal"?) I've always had a soft spot for Henson's heartwarming puppet productions, and it's a treat to find such a well-done bio on the man behind the scenes. In addition to covering the course of his career, a sidebar offers trivia, a timeline, Quick Time video clips, and links. A fitting tribute to a one-of-a-kind entertainer.
