Shhhh... Making Plans with Bob Dorough THREE IS A MAGIC NUMBER!!!
Remember Bob Dorough
I was in third grade in 1973 when Schoolhouse Rock premiered — "Three Is a Magic Number" was the very first one. I was born a musical little spirit, with an older sister who sang, and on Saturday mornings my mother had me up early doing my chores — $2 a week to keep my room clean — dusting and cleaning while Schoolhouse Rock played. I never missed it.
Years later I met Bob Dorough at KindieComm 2016, April 2–3 in Philadelphia. We both gave talks there — me and Bob Dorough on the same program! (And KindieComm was founded by the WXPN Kids Corner folk, which is the same WXPN connection as your radio appearance in Philadelphia.) We clicked instantly. I was blessed to share a radio appearance with him on WXPN — a highlight of my life; meeting the piano man whose songs I sang as a child.
