Hi Devon and islanders!

A documentary about "Reading Rainbow"may not sound compelling enough to watch, but if there's some juicy behind-the-scenes tidbits involving disputes with the producers, it just might be worth it.

I get the feeling "Sasquatch Summer" is meant to be a sequel to "Harry And The Hendersons", but we'll just let the OP tell us for themselves.

Sasquatch has pretty good taste in music, I'd say.

Good to know Bonnie Beecher is still alive and well! But I never knew she'd married Wavy Gravy soon after breaking up with Dylan.
Also, you've got the Star Trek connection here: Beecher in one ep of the original series, Levar in TNG.

I was peripherally aware of Reading Rainbow's existence...I would have been a junior in high school in '83, so a little after my time

So I used DuckDuckGo (hi mark hurst) and learned this, on CB’s website—

Hidden in the bowels of the Carpenter Center at Harvard lurked an Oxberry animation stand and George Griffin was nice enough to let me continue to use it after I graduated. I always hoped for an opportunity to repay this generosity, and it came in 1996 when he called me to ask if I'd write music for the Film Forum trailer.

The Film Forum is an extraordinary non-profit cinematheque in the Soho neighborhood of New York City. The director, Karen Cooper, wanted a trailer to show before every screening and she happened to be married to George Griffin. George animated it on a personal computer, which I believe was a new thing for him, and I wrote music that derived its rhythms from the mechanical/contructivist imagery George used to open and close the piece.
