Bonnie's First Impressions of Jim Henson
After the first season of The Muppets Show, Bonnie and her husband Wade Harrison started their own company designing puppets and other characters. They also designed a lot of sports mascots, like they created the Philly fanatic for the Philadelphia Phillies. In the early 1970s, she was a costume designer in New York. Someone told her that Jim Henson was looking to hire someone to work on a TV special called The Frog Prince.
