LEO SULLIVAN

EMMY AWARD WINNING DIRECTOR

Everything has a history! Back in the late 1960s, Leo Sullivan worked with Bill Cosby and other talented artists to create the designs of the Fat Albert characters you have grown to love. We worked feverishly to finish the first "Fat Albert" television special to meet Bill Cosby's air date with NBC. We worked long nights and drew thousands of drawings...which we also painted and photographed. There were seven artistic and dedicated souls that helped Bill Cosby launch his characters into further fame. Leo Sullivan
