Richard Hunt(1951-1992)
- Actor
- Additional Crew
- Director
Richard Hunt did not have a face known to many -- his voice was known
more than anything else. He was a major stronghold behind Jim Henson's
"Muppets". 'Scooter', 'Janice', 'Sweetums' and a few others, were some
of the "Muppets" that Richard was a performer and puppeteer of. He
helped pave the way for Jim Henson and his company from the 1970s
through the early 90s, until his surprising death in 1992 of
AIDS.
