Lloyd N. Morrisett Jr. (November 2, 1929 – January 23, 2023) was an American experimental psychologist with a career in education, communications, and philanthropy. He was one of the founders of the Children's Television Workshop, known as Sesame Workshop, the organisation that created the children's television show Sesame Street, which Morrisett created with Joan Ganz Cooney.

Were you a fan of Sesame Street, apparently it was worldwide famous, dear oh dear, I had to Google it. I have just watched about a minute of it on Youtube, that's enough! That was famous?
 

For generations, children have enjoyed learning through this medium. Sesame Street, which debuted in 1969, has changed over the years. Society has changed over the years. The foundation of the show has remained the same- to teach kids the life skills they need in addition to reading, math and science. I applaud the positive impact this show has had on the children, their families and society as a whole.
