Bruce Cayard

Bruce Cayard designed and produced many classic animated segments for Sesame Street and The Electric Company, beginning in the early 1970s and continuing as late as 1999. Cayard's work had a distinctive cartoonish style, though the actual animation was generally in the hands of others, including John Canemaker for the early shorts and, for the later "pixelated" segments, Artist Mike. These later pieces were animated on an Amiga computer, but still reflected Cayard's sketchy design style. Cayard also produced animated openings and segments for Bob Keeshan's Captain Kangaroo. Among his Sesame contributions were:


 * The Noble Ostrich
 * Me and My M
 * If You've Lost Your L
 * Jungle Room
 * Scary Thing
 * Wash Your Hands Before You Eat
 * Sneeze
 * Hummingbird
 * Wash Your Hands
 * Needle and Thread
