Join William Stout, artist and illustrator, with a specialization in paleontological art, to talk about his long career and getting famous slowly. The span of his work is enormous, both in terms of time, from the sixties to now, and across media: murals, posters, record covers, comics, trading cards—and over 70 movies. He is known for bootleg album covers, such as Who's Zoo, and his cover of Firesign Theatre's In the Next World You're On Your Own. His movie work includes the poster for Wizards and design work for the Conan films and Masters of the Universe. His dinosaurs are everywhere: the San Diego Zoo, the San Diego Natural History Museum, many other museums, traveling exhibitions, and books, such as, Ray Bradbury's Dinosaur TalesThe Little Blue Brontosaurus. A terrific and uplifting episode with a hard-working creative individual whose work has touched and influenced many. With co-host Bill Aho.
