abstract
  • Getting to Sesame Street: Origins of the Children's Television Workshop is a history of the creation of Sesame Street, focusing primarily on the research and funding behind the Children's Television Workshop. Most of the book's narrative focuses on the period before the launch of the show; the show's premiere is described in the last chapter. The cover illustration features Big Bird's leg, but the book does not discuss the Muppets or Jim Henson's involvement beyond a few passing mentions. Oscar the Grouch is mentioned in chapter 6, and there are a few mentions of "puppet characters" in chapter 8. One paragraph in chapter 8 describes the Muppet sketch in the Sesame Street Pitch Reel about the difficulty of choosing a name for the show.
