Kurt Hunter built his first marionette at age 12. Ever since he’s made marionettes his passion creating several shows he’s performed all over the United States with his company Kurt Hunter Marionettes. In addition to teaching and performing at National Puppetry Festivals, he is now on the artistic staff of the O’Neill Puppetry conference. I talk to Kurt about his puppetry journey on this episode of Under The Puppet.
