"And also there wasn't much money in television in those days anyhow"
- Jim Henson
About this Quote
This quote by Jim Henson is referring to the early days of television. In the 1950s and 1960s, television was still a reasonably new medium and was not yet as popular or profitable as it is today. Henson is suggesting that there was not much money to be made in tv throughout this time, as it was still in its infancy. This absence of monetary reward likely made it hard for people to pursue a career in tv, which is why Henson and other leaders of the medium needed to be so creative and ingenious in order to make a living. Henson's quote is a suggestion of how far television has come in the past few years, and just how much of an effect it has had on our lives.
This quote is written / told by Jim Henson between September 24, 1936 and May 16, 1990. He/she was a famous Entertainer from USA.
