Biography

Will Lee, a renowned thespian, entered this world on August 6, 1908, in the vibrant metropolis of New York City, situated in the state of New York, within the United States of America. His impressive acting career spanned numerous decades, leaving an indelible mark on the world of entertainment. He is perhaps best remembered for his iconic role on the beloved children's television program Sesame Street, which premiered in 1969 and has since become an integral part of popular culture.

In addition to his work on Sesame Street, Lee's impressive repertoire also includes appearances in the 1983 film Daniel and the 1941 musical comedy Melody Lane. Tragically, his life was cut short on December 7, 1982, once again in his beloved hometown of New York City, New York, USA.
