Re-read that, Please.
Yes, he wasn't from around here, he was from Pittsburgh. Last I looked, Pittsbufgh was part of this country, although the current blue/red split may be pushing to change that.

[the programming for wqed in pittsburgh that rogers developed in the early 50s was called "the children's corner". josie carey was the host; fred rogers was a puppeteer, composer and organist. it was in 63 that he did the canadian "misterogers" (for cbc), and that was where he (as mister rogers) made his debut as the program's host. in 66 he returned to pittsburgh, and segments of the cbc were incorporated into a new series called "misterogers' neighborhood".]
