I was born in 1941.. so your as bad at numbers as you are with facts.. I was the lead costumer on episodes of Red Skeleton, Bonanza, Branded, Rifleman and Hogan’s Heroes, and a wardrobe fitter on a host of fill-ins for most of the Top 10 NBC variety shows in 1963-66. Thus, Dean Martin Show,  Perry Como Christmas Shows, several Red Skeleton, Danny Kaye and Jerry Lewis, plus a Lucy and Judy Garland at Desilu..

I worked as lead or men's wardrobe on most everything else. My stint with Edith Head, during which I did the trailer for Elder, and the original Harlow with Carol Baker, which was never released in theaters.. I was a replacement Costume Designer for Jack Bear on "What did you do in the war daddy", and one or two others as men's wardrobe with Blake Edwards, during Jack Bear's illness, that I just can't remember their names..   My fashion house and perfumery, the House Of  Carlo, where I designed personally for Joan Crawford, Gypsy Rose Lee, Lucy Ball, Barbara Stanwyck.. among many others..I operated my company from 1962, until I sold in 1966.

The Chief of Protocol is for The State of Texas, for Gov Dolph Brisco, 1972-1974, responsible for the Southern Governor's Conference... .I am the Producer of my own productions on Lecture tours aboard ships and Featured Chef productions at Food Festivals and other venues. The books are my publishing company.. would you like a book.. send a check get a book.
