NPR: Bunnytown Creator Keeps it Simple

Bunnytown Creator Keeps it Simple

Filed under: Video

Puppeteer David Rudman began his career as an intern at the Jim Henson Workshop. Since then, he's been a staple on Sesame Street, having played half of the Two-Headed Monster, and the legendary Cookie Monster. In his time there, Rudman even created his own character, Baby Bear. Now David has created a new Disney show, Bunnytown, which has become a mega-hit amongst both children and parents.
He was in our studio recently and told us a little about what makes his puppets so dang adorable.
