WAD was also an astonishing and whimsical puppeteer. He ran a puppet theatre for his friends on Boston's South Shore for many years, and documented it in a large, beautifully designed and illustrated book. Many of his puppets are held by the Boston Public Library's rare book collection and were displayed outside the entrance to the rare book room. They provide rare insight to a remarkable man.
