Doug Kincaid

From an early age, Kincaid was interested in the creation, depiction, and performance of imaginary characters and settings, especially in the fields of motion pictures, television, and theme parks.

He lists as major artistic influences Walt Disney, puppeteers & producers Sid and Marty Krofft, animation legend Chuck Jones, writer and Twilight Zone creator Rod Serling, pioneering character make-up artists Lon Chaney and Dick Smith, veteran character actor Felix Silla, and British comedians Monty Python and Benny Hill.

While attending Washington University in St. Louis in 1980, Kincaid began a 19-year relationship with CBS affiliate KMOX (later KMOV-TV), performing, writing, and creating sets, puppets, and characters (again with brother Bill) for two children's programs, D.

During the summer of 1993, Kincaid was a featured performer/puppeteer on Ranger Bob's Buckaroo Club, a children's television show produced by WKCF TV 18 in Orlando.

Recently, he is active in the development of The Kincaid Karacter Studios, a multifaceted production services company located in Atlanta, GA.
