Todd Livingston

Todd Livingston is a filmmaker and author.

Biography

Livingston began his career as a comedian in the critically acclaimed quintette 'Open Season'. The group toured the U.S. and Canada, headlining clubs and colleges and becoming regulars at L.A's Comedy Store, New York's Comic Strip and Improv, where they would often share the stage with Jerry Seinfeld, Adam Sandler and Chris Rock.

Livingston co-wrote and produced the group's novelty song "The Shakespeare Rap," which became a top 10 hit on the Dr. Demento radio show, and became the group's signature bit.

During the slim non-touring time, Todd took gigs acting for network TV and movies, including Unsolved Mysteries and Umberto Lenzi’s cult horror favorite Hitcher in the Dark.

Livingston co-wrote & produced and directed the supernatural comedy film So, You've Downloaded a Demon at Accidental Films and the graphic novels, mainly published by Image Comics: America jr., The Black Forest and The Wicked West, as well as The Living and The Dead, Chopper Zombie and the mini-series The Odd Squad.

Since 2017, Livingston has been writing Rocky & Bullwinkle comics published by American Mythology Productions.

Awards

The Black Forest won the Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Awards for Best Horror Comic of 2004,[1] and in 2005 The Black Forest 2 won the award again.[2]
