David NewellNewell 2015Born David Alexander Newell (1938-11-24) November 24, O'Hara Township, Pennsylvania, United StatesOccupationActorYears active1968–present David Alexander Newell,born November 24, 1938 in New York, is an American television actor best known for his portrayal of Mr. McFeely, the delivery man at Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and worked in the public relations department of Fred Rogers Productions. His character's most famous catchphrase was Speedy Delivery! He toured the country until he retired in 2015, promoting Mr. Rogers' neighborhood as Mr. McFeely. [1] Life Newell was born in O'Hara Township, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Pittsburgh. He graduated from the University of Pittsburgh,[2] he was director of public relations for Fred Rogers Productions. Newell still lives in O'Hara Township with his wife Nan. They have a daughter, Catherine; two sons, Taylor and Alex; and four grandchildren. [3] Career Newell began his acting career at a theater school called the Pittsburgh Playhouse. Through connections made there, he eventually met Fred Rogers. Newell was originally hired on the show as public relations manager, but Rogers also cast him in the role of Mr. McFeely. As a result, he and Roger became lifelong friends until Roger's death in 2003. [4] A documentary film about Newell entitled Speedy Delivery, which depicts his travels around the world as Mr. McFeely, debuted on public television in 2008. [5] An animated version of Mr. McFeely is a recurring character on the new PBS series Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood. Canadian actor Derek McGrath in front of his voice. [citation needed] In 2017, Newell appeared as a special guest on the live-action children's web series, Danny Joe's Tree House. [7] Newell made a cameo in Fred Rogers' biopic A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. [8] Working with Fred Rogers was like taking a master's degree in child development. Fred taught by example, and he was subtle—but suddenly you would realize that, after working side by side with him, your knowledge base had expanded almost beyond description. [9] What I like about Danny Joe's Tree House is that children can interact with a living person. Danny's a big kid at heart and I think that's very helpful. In today's world where everything is virtual and robotic, here is a person who brings original thoughts and ideas. [10] References ^ Neighborhood News. Family communication.

Instead, Spinney appeared as Big Bird in a segment of Neighborhood of Make- Believe. 63 out of 64 found this interesting Interesting? | Sharing this On hearing him perform in a Church Gospel performance, Rogers hired Francois Clemmons for the series.

Article updated: 1/27/2013 8:16 PM ‘Speedy Delivery!’ at Naperville museum from ‘Mister Roger’s Neighborhood’ By Susan Sarkauskas David Newell is devoted to making sure the legacy of children’s television pioneer Fred Rogers lives on. Newell, who played deliveryman Mr. McFeely on “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood,” spoke to the show’s fans Sunday at the DuPage Children’s Museum in Naperville. Even though Rogers died in 2003, the show is still broadcast on some public-television channels, and can be watched on Amazon.com, YouTube and Hulu. And last fall, PBS debuted a spinoff, the animated “Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood,” which is produced by the Fred Rogers Co. “I thought I had a job for one year,” said Newell of the show’s debut season. Now he’s the public relations director for the company, which Rogers started in 1971 as Family Communications. Newell was at the museum to mark the end of its “How People Make Things” traveling exhibit, which was created by the Pittsburgh Children’s Museum with the help of the Fred Rogers Co. His visit also promoted the museum’s campaign to collect sweaters to donate to DuPage Public Action to Deliver Shelter and Hesed House homeless shelter, tying in with Rogers’ famous practice of changing in to a cardigan at the beginning of every show.

    Everything We Need to Know We Learned from Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood Alison Grand, Founder and President, G rand Communicatio ns, Inc. As a New York City publicist who specializes in on-screen entertainment for kids, I’ve worked with some of the most popular and successful shows in the children’s TV playground for decades. Though my experiences working with the different kids’ brands my team and I have represented are unique and each one is a gem in its own right, I found that promoting Fred Rogers and the 50th anniversary of his Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood this year to be a labor of love. It helped give me a spring in my step on my morning commute. It was a good feeling. A very good feeling. Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, that widely and long beloved children’s series, was and always will be inextricably linked to Fred Rogers, the man on TV with whom I often visited as a child myself. Publicizing it has been like celebrating a dear old friend. I never got to work with Fred directly, but it dawned on me one day in looking over an email about the freshest batch of “love letters” we secured from media across the country for Fred Rogers Productions around the th50 anniversary milestone that I was now part of the fabric of the show’s history, woven into the tapestry with those both before and behind the camera, who lovingly helped shape and amplify the series, extending the wisdom and mission of the man at its center. This has been the “year of Fred” – from the PBS documentary and the one from Morgan Neville on the big screen to the Forever postage stamp, the Paley Center, the Google Doodle, the Jeopardy! category, and other such public celebrations and reflections.
