Joan Ganz Cooney proposed a show & got money from Dept of Ed to fund “Children’s Television Workshop”. As asked, she made a list of men to be considered for executive producer, but refused to be #2. She became executive producer of Sesame Street which aired in 1969 & is still on PBS today.

Sesame Street with my oldest son, who was not quite 3 yo at the time. It was a must see in my household for all my children. They learned so much.
Trump and co. 100% oppression. What’s he doing?!? Impeach trump, shred Project 2025 now. Keep calling your lawmakers
These were pressing questions for a five-year-old.
