Sesame Street is the longest-running-and arguably most beloved- children's television program ever created.
Today, it reaches some six million preschoolers weekly in the United States and countless others in 140 countries
around the world.
Street Gang is the compelling, comical, and inspiring story of a media masterpiece and pop-culture landmark. Television
reporter and columnist Michael Davis-with the complete participation of Joan Ganz Cooney, one of the show's founders-unveils
the idealistic personalities, decades of social and cultural change, stories of compassion and personal sacrifice,
and miraculous efforts of writers, producers, directors, and puppeteers that together transformed an empty soundstage
into the most recognizable block of real estate in television history.
