The Big Question: How Do You Become a Big Bird?
Carroll Spinney is not Big Bird or Oscar the Grouch: "I just get to bring them to life," he likes to say. And he has. Since 1969, when Sesame Street first aired on PBS, the now 76-year-old Spinney, a Massachusetts native and Connecticut resident, has been entertaining and teaching kids, just as he dreamed of doing when he was a kid himself. We spoke with Spinney at the offices of the nonprofit Sesame Workshop (formerly Children's Television Workshop), which produces the show, in New York.
