Donald George Sahlin (1928-1978) was a prominent Muppet designer and builder, renowned for his contributions to Jim Henson's creations. Beginning his puppet-making journey at age 11, he constructed Rowlf the Dog for Purina commercials in 1962. Sahlin is credited with designing iconic Muppet characters, including Bert and Ernie, Grover, and Cookie Monster, characterized by their distinctive spheroid heads.
