Clash developed an interest in puppetry at an early age and, in his teen years, performed for local TV children’s shows in his hometown of Baltimore, Maryland. He joined the cast of Captain Kangaroo in the early 1980s and began performing on Sesame Street in 1984. He was the fifth puppeteer to perform Elmo, who became his signature character, and he also served as an executive producer and director for the show. Clash worked in various productions with The Jim Henson Company and occasionally on other projects. Clash’s autobiography, My Life as a Furry Red Monster, was published in 2006; he was later the subject of the documentary Being Elmo: A Puppeteer’s Journey (2011). He resigned from Sesame Street in 2012 after allegations of sexual impropriety, all of which he denied and were later dismissed due to expiration of the statute of limitations. Clash returned to puppeteering as a supporting performer in the comedy The Happytime Murders (2018).
After the height of Elmo’s popularity, especially the “Tickle Me Elmo” craze in 1996, Clash’s responsibilities at Sesame Street increased. He recruited, auditioned, and trained its puppeteers, and became the senior Muppet coordinator, a writer, director, and co-producer of the “Elmo’s World” segment of the show. Clash worked with and mentored the puppeteers of Sesame Street’s international co-productions. He found working with the co-productions “a lot of fun” and “very rewarding”. He worked on the 1985 feature film Follow That Bird. In 2007, he was promoted to senior creative adviser for the Sesame Workshop. Until 2011, he was the sole performer as Elmo in all his public relations appearances, making his schedule, as he called it, “crazy”. Cheryl Henson, president of the Jim Henson Foundation, called him “essential” to the show.
