The film traces Kevin Clash's rise from his modest beginnings in Baltimore to his current success as
the man behind Elmo, one of the world's most recognizable and adored characters. Millions of
children tune in daily to watch Elmo, yet when Kevin walks down the street he is not recognized.
Pivotal to the film is the exploration of Jim Henson's meteoric rise, and Kevin's ultimate
achievement of his goal to become part of the Henson family of puppeteers. In addition to
puppeteering Elmo, Mr. Clash is arguably the creative force behind today's Sesame Street, producing,
directing and traveling around the globe training other puppeteers. Includes interviews with Frank
Oz, Rosie O'Donnell, Whoopi Goldberg, Carroll Spinney, Joan Ganz Cooney, Marty Robinson, Fran Brill,
and Bill Barretta.
