I am a 100% Klutz. Proudly. For much of my adult life I've been immersed in the world of Klutz books, developing products that teach kids to make stuff with their actual hands. (What a concept.) Those years at Klutz allowed me to combine my love of writing, drawing, designing, art directing, and collaborating. We all strived to make wonderful things and be good. Which we did, over and over again.I was personally responsible for several dozen top selling titles. Some of my favorites include Pipe Cleaners Gone Crazy, The Greatest Thumb Doodles Book in the History of the Civilized World, Dr. Frankesketch's Monster Drawing Machine and The Super Hero Starter Kit.Beyond Klutz, I have worked in the toy Industry as an art director and character designer. I am the proud papa of The Kooshlings, Koosh Ball characters who came from... you guessed it.... Planet Koosh. I'm also a seasoned presenter, improviser, actor and musician. If you see a gentleman who looks a lot like me using the name Michael Schoolcraft, he is me. (Schoolcraft is a name induced by the Screen Actors Guild. Michael Sherman was unavailable. As was my second choice, George Clooney. And third choice... Sophia Loren.)
