In commemoration of Theodor Seuss Geisel’s 100th birthday on March 2, 2004, Seussentennial was a yearlong tribute to the man known and loved by generations of Americans as Dr. Seuss. “Seussentennial: A Century of Imagination” celebrated Geisel’s creativity, imagination, and his invaluable contributions to American society that live on today through his beloved books and iconic characters.

Started in January 2004, the events and activities comprising Seussentennial celebrated all aspects of Geisel’s life, from his celebrated books, like Green Eggs and Ham and How The Grinch Stole Christmas!, to his much lesser known work in advertising and his award-winning film work.
