Street Gang is the compelling, comical, and inspiring story of a media masterpiece and pop-culture landmark.
Television reporter and columnist Michael Davis -- with the complete participation of Joan Ganz Cooney, one of the show’s founders -- unveils the idealistic personalities, decades of social and cultural change, stories of compassion and personal sacrifice, and miraculous efforts of writers, producers, directors, and puppeteers that together transformed an empty soundstage into the most recognizable block of real estate in television history.
