After the show with Mr Punch

My puppet career began with my apprenticeship with the Bread and Puppet Theater in Vermont Soon after I built my own "one-man
traveling Punch and Judy show" and entertained thousands of college students on campus in the Northeast doing a street theater
show.
I became an artist in residence under the auspices of the ct commission of the arts in 1978 and founded a puppet company
Wunderlee and Wilson's Traveling puppet shows and toured throughout New England and as far south as North Carolina.
I went on to produce a children's show on Channel 20 WTXX for eight years as the character TX Critter 1984-1992.
I spent two years as a docent at the Yale University Art Gallery where I taught mask-making and visual arts.
I have been a guest presenter for the commission on Jewish education in mask and puppet making.

The Wunderlee puppets would be considered a national treasure in other countries of the world......."Fred Rogers of Mr Rogers
