Joe Bevilacqua, also known as Joe Bev, is a public radio producer and radio theater dramatist. However, his career has taken him into every aspect of show business, including stage, film, and television as a producer, director, writer, author, actor, journalist, documentarian, and even cartoonist. He is also a member of the Metropolitan Opera Company in New York City.

William Claude Dukenfield (January 29, 1880-December 25, 1946), better known as W. C. Fields, was an American comedian, actor, juggler, and writer. Fields''s comic persona was a misanthropic and hard-drinking egotist, who remained a sympathetic character despite his snarling contempt for children.
