Speedy Delivery: Finding Happiness in Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood

As Mr. McFeely, David makes personal appearances across the country and around the world. From the beginning, he has also been the company’s Director of Public Relations, with primary responsibility for project promotion, media relations, and communicating with PBS stations.
