I started out as a staff designer at American Greetings, migrated to Calif. to a drawing board at Buzza Cardozo Cards.
My next stop was Mattel Toys,('67) Standard Plastics, (did Barbie and Kiddle houses and trunks Art). I did final art for Seus packages, Barbie & Large Doll packages. In '72 I joined California R &D and created all the PILLSBURY characters to supplement Poppin Fresh. Associated with Eddy Goldfarb ('77-'85), I created MILKEY THE COW, GOBBLES THE GOAT, SWEETIE FACE and DOLLY POPS for Knickerbocker Toys. Freelancing for Tomy, I loved doing the original sketches & characters for SWEET SEA (baby Mermaid), & the Cabbage Patch Fashion plates. Returned to staff at Mattel Toys '86...created MINNIE 'N ME for Disney. Returning to freelance '96 designed Koosh Critters... created a small doll line (KOOSHIE KOOS). Rebooted DOLLY POPS as LITTLE SNAPS for Silverlit Toys. Sold in BETTY SPAGHETTY to Ohio Art '98 (5 great years!) & revamped BETTY in '07. BETTY is available as are many other concepts Gray & I created
