Billie Lou Watt(1924-2001)

Daughter of Edison Watt (1897-1979), who worked as an official at the Southwestern Bell Telephone Company, and Floy (nee Smith) Watt (1892-1963), who worked in the adjustment department of Stix, Baer & Fuller in St. Louis for over 20 years.

We did Superbook for CBN [Christian Broadcasting Network]. I felt that the interpretation of the Bible stories by the Japanese was great. It was very beautiful. The animation, though, while good, was not as good as Tezuka's.

Ray [Owens] played in the soap operas that were being produced on CBN. It was when Ray flew down to Florida to do a week's worth of soaps that he found out about Superbook. [Taken from a 1995 interview with Billie Lou Watt]
