A Very Happy Birthday to Muppeteer Frank Oz! A Very Gifted Muppeteer, Actor and Director. Who was also Jim Henson's right arm- May Muppet King Jim Henson always rest in peace in heaven.There never could have been such wonderful Muppets cre5b4ated like Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Animal, Sam The Eagle, Bert, Cookie Monster, Grover, George The Janitor, and The Swedish Chef's arms without his talent! Frank was also a Creative Consultant on The Muppet Show. He also Directed The Muppets Take Manhattan, What About Bob?, The Indian In The Cupboard, The Stepford Wives, Housesitter, and The Dark Crystal, which he Co-Directed with Jim Henson. FRank was also The Executive Producer of The Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Treasure Island. And he acted in 2 of Director John Landis' Films: The Blues Brothers and Trading Places as his Good Luck charm.And he never knew anyone like Jim Henson! Frank as Fozzie Bear showed his insecurity as a performer! May God Bless you, Frank! The Muppet Empire never could have achieved it's success without you! Have an awesome birthday! You're a very talented person!
