Colorful Characters

Among the colorful characters I have seen would be the firehouse dog seen here on the way to a school outing, and the biggest name in clowns, WGN's own Bozo. I had the chance to work with Bob Bell in the late 1970s when Bozo appeared on the Jerry Lewis telethon when I was working backstage and he was the epitome of the professional clown. A real pleasure to work with. This photo was from about 1978.
