Albert G. Miller

From Muppet Wiki

Albert G. Miller (ca. 1906-1982) was a playwright, script writer for radio and films, and children's author who supplied verse adaptations for The Sesame Street Storybook. The material was later reprinted in The Sesame Street Library series.

Miller began his career as a New York radio writer in the 1930s and 1940s, writing for sharp-tongued satirist Fred Allen, the adventure serial Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, and the light comedy Maudie's Diary. He remained active in the medium once television entered the picture, scripting the syndicated series Official Detective (1956) and the revival series Theater Five (1965). He wrote his first play in 1933, The Sellout, which drew from his radio experiences and opened on Broadway.

Miller's occasional forays into screenwriting included the 1960 adaptation of Agatha Christie's play The Spider's Web. Children's books include a juvenile biography of Mark Twain.
