   I simply adore this photo of James Earl Jones & Big Bird.

   Yes, he played a lot of memorable dads from Darth Vader to Mufasa to King Jaffe Joffer + countless other incredible roles on & offscreen.

   And Mr. Jones also happened to be the very first celebrity guest on Sesame Street. #history #media #art
