Entertainer. Larry Harmon portrayed "Bozo the Clown" for more than fifty years. He bought the rights to Bozo, and the business that combined animation, character licensing, and personal appearances was worth millions. His television show was seen all over the country as well as some overseas markets. He trained more than 200 "Bozos" to represent him in local markets. As Bozo's influence spread, his name became a synonym for clownish behavior. He also worked in a animation studio in Hollywood, California, where he produced cartoons based on the characters of "Laurel and Hardy," "Popeye," and "Mr. Magoo."
