Biography
About Steve Whitmire
© Kevin Winter/Getty Images Entertainment
At age 11, wrote a letter about puppetmaking to his future boss, Jim Henson, and received a personal reply encouraging him to stick with puppeteering. Had his big break at age 19 after impressing Caroll Spinney at a puppetry festival which led to an interview with Jim Henson. Had his first and only musical writing credit, on the TV show Fraggle Rock, after the composer for the show found out that he was an amateur musician.
Spent a year of intensive work at a local humane society outside of Atlanta in 1987. Was handpicked to take over the puppets Kermit the Frog and Ernie after the death of Jim Henson in 1990. Serves on the board of the Shambala Preserve, Tippi Hedren's big cat animal preserve.
