Having created Olly Oogleberry at the ripe old age of 12 while staring out the window in 7th grade math class, it only took Lou Hughes another 30 years to finally bring his childhood creation to life. Inspired by his two daughters with whom he would concoct nightly bedtime tales of earthly wonders and alien misfits from distant galaxies, Lou Hughes created Olly Oogleberry as a vessel for learning about the extraordinary universe in which we live, and our tiny, but meaningful place in it. Now fully grown up, Hughes serves as Principal and Chief Marketing Officer of Moving Minds, a global strategic marketing and brand consultancy. Hughes holds a B.A. in Communication from the University of Alabama, and has received numerous industry and corporate awards for excellence in marketing, e-commerce and creative achievement, including 2012 Book of the Year by Creative Child Magazine, 2012 Moonbeam Gold Medal Award, 2012 IPPY Award for Graphic Book: Humor/Cartoon, 2012 Tillywig Top Fun Award, 2012 Family Choice Award, 2012 Family Review Magazine Gold Award, 2012 Webby Award, 2011 Interactive Media Award and a 2011 Davey Award.
