Ed Cunningham Cooks

During the March 1999 WHYY-TV Pledge Drive

On Saturday, February 27, 1999, Chef Jim Coleman of the Rittenhouse (host of his own PBS-TV show) visited WHYY-TV for six 20 minute cooking segments as part of the first day of the TV-12 pledge drive. Jim's assistant for the day was the "Old Gang's" own Ed Cunningham.

On Saturday, March 21, 1999, TV Cooking Host Amy Coleman (no relation to Jim) appears on WHYY-TV on six 20 minute cooking segments. Guess who was her assistant. You're right, "the King of the Itsy Bitsy Spider", Ed Cunningham.
