Pause for a moment and listen to the words of a good man.
"We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It’s easy to say 'It’s not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.' Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes. - Fred Rogers"
Fred Rogers was the host of the timeless children's show, "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood." The show was filmed here in Pittsburgh from February 1968 until December 2000. The show was unique in the way that Mister Rogers talked directly to his audience, speaking gently and kindly about topics that were both friendly and frightening. He began each show by entering his studio home, putting on a zippered cardigan, removing his work shoes, and tying on his sneakers as he is doing in this sculpture. One of those cardigans is now housed in the Smithsonian Institution - a testament to Mister Rogers' lasting impact on our culture.
