Josie Carey (1931 - May 28, 2004), stagename of Josephine Vicari Massucci Franz, was the host of Pittsburgh's children show, "The Children's Corner" on WQED from 1953 to 1961. Ms. Carey was partnered with Fred Rogers (Mr. Rogers) who would act as puppeteer of various puppets who would dance along to 68 songs which he wrote and for which Carey wrote the lyrics.
After her show was cancelled, Ms. Carey went on to host other children's programming, including "Josie's Storyland" and "Funsville," which were aired on KDKA-TV in Pittsburgh, "Wheee!" in South Carolina, and most recently, "Josie's Attic" during the 1990s on WQEX in Pittsburgh.
