Larry Grossman

Larry Grossman began his connection with the Muppets as the music consultant on The Muppet Show for its first three seasons (suggesting musical numbers that would best suit the week's guest star) and co-writing several original songs in the show's third season. Grossman was nominated for an Emmy for his work as music director for The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson and was creative consultant on the 1993 album Ol' Brown Ears is Back.
Grossman also composed the music for Snoopy!!! The Musical with lyricist Hal Hackady, including "Just One Person," which has become something of a Muppet anthem over the years.
Prior to his work with the Jim Henson Company, Grossman served as music coordinator on The Jimmy Dean Show, contributing songs such as "My Christmas Room," which was performed by Jimmy Dean on the show and released on the 1965 album Jimmy Dean's Christmas Card.
