| Bob Bell (January 18, 1922 – December 8, 1997) was famous for his alter-ego, Bozo the Clown. He was the original portrayer of the character for Chicago superstation WGN-TV. In 1960, station management asked the character actor and staff announcer--who also was WGN's Three Stooges host-- to portray Bozo on a live, 30-minute show weekdays at noon, consisting of one-man sketches and cartoons. "Bozo" evolved into "Bozo's Circus" in 1961 as a live, hour-long telecast. In 1970, Bell received his first Emmy for WGN-TV’s "Bozo’s Circus." He retired from WGN-TV and "The Bozo Show" in 1984, and was inducted into the International Clown Hall of Fame in 1996. His co-star Roy Brown, the circus cook Cooky, was also inducted in 1993. Alternate use"Bob Bell" is also the stage name of Nashville, Tennessee broadcaster Robert Bellar, who has intermittently hosted a sports talk show on clear channel radio station WLAC in Nashville, and served as a television sportscaster and commercial announcer. He is often the play-by-play broadcaster of University of Tennessee pay-per-view football games.[ Visit the complete Wikipedia entry for Bob Bell ] Some related entries: Virginia Gregg | Oscar Goodman | Barry Tubb | The Diary of Anne Frank | Jamie Lynn Sease | Midori | Bo White | Jed Allan | Georgie Henley | Angie Dickinson | Rostislav Yankovsky This page is based on the copyrighted Wikipedia article Bob Bell; it is used under the GNU Free Documentation License.
