In advance of the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street, comes Street Gang, Michael Davis''s compelling--and often comical--story of the creation and history of the media masterpiece and pop culture landmark, told with the cooperation of one of the show''s cofounders, Joan Ganz Cooney. Sesame Street was born as a result of a discussion at Cooney''s home about the poor quality of children''s programming, and hit the air as a big bang of creative fusion from Jim Henson and company, quickly rocketing to success. Street Gang, traces the evolution of the show from its inspiration in the civil rights movement through its many ups and downs--from Nixon trying to cut off its funding rise of Elmo--via the remarkable personalities who have contributed to it, and reveals how it has taught millions of children not only their letters and numbers, but cooperation and fair play, tolerance and self-respect, conflict resolution, and the importance of listening.

Considering that an estimated 70-odd million American kids have befriended Big Bird, Oscar, and the crew since their debut in 1969, Michael Davis should have a wide audience for STREET GANG: THE COMPLETE HISTORY OF SESAME STREET. Joan Ganz Cooney, Jim Henson, and a host of writers, designers, and execs turned a revolutionary experiment in educational programming into the industry standard. With a raft of interviews and evident love, Davis tells the story of this classic program, whose cultural impact was only matched by its good times--prime example: "Rubber Ducky" was a pop-music chart topper in 1970!

A former family television editor for TV Guide traces the story of the landmark children's television show, from its origins at a dinner party by co-founder Joan Ganz Cooney and the creative achievements of Jim Henson to the Nixon administration's efforts to stop its funding and the advent of Elmo.
